Orange Peeling

People all over the world peel oranges and eat them. Today was a fantastic day where I got to be one of those people. But my experience was a little different, or maybe the difference is that I stopped and looked around for a minute. I was sitting in the middle of Old Town Square in Prague, I had a live jazz band playing in front of me and the sun selflessly feeding my skin. I had a smile on my face and no one could have taken the happiness I felt during that moment.

Why was this moment so important? Well today is the three month birthday of my trip as well as the beginning of the last month. I have seen, felt and changed immensely. What I am having trouble with lately is focusing on today, the moment I am living, the present. This moment in Old Town Square made me realize how important living in the present is without worrying about how little time I have left, or how much I miss home.

I peel some oranges for today because tomorrow is a different day.
