In the movie “Scent of a Woman” there is an wonderful scene: the one in which the protagonist, played by Al Pacino, invites a young woman to dance, to which she responds:
“I can’t because my fiancé will be arriving in a moment.”
“In an instant, a life is lived!” he replies, leading her out onto the dance floor to dance a tango.
This memorable scene reminds us of one of the film’s beautiful messages: Some people live by running after time, but somehow they don’t manage to reach it even when they run in a hurry. Others, look only to the future, by forgetting to live in the present moment. We all have time equally; no one has more or less than 24 hours a day. The difference lies in what we each do with this time. We need to know how to take advantage of every moment because, as John Lennon said:
“Life goes on…while we plan for the future.”
The music is playing my friends…take the time to dance, to look up at the stars and to be in the moment…be present…say yes…may today be a memorable 24 hours in your lifetime!
