Today, you have 100% of your life left.
— Tom Hopkins

I love this quote because of the 100% part. That’s a good, reassuring number.

We tend to measure life with time, but what is time really? It’s mainly something we use to distinguish between one event and another. We think of time as “running out” but actually the clock just keeps on ticking. As soon as one moment is over, another one begins.

Life is not something that gets doled out by the hour. Life is always now. And no matter what has happened in the past, no matter what might come along in the future, we all have 100% of now. That’s a beautiful number, and a grand opportunity. What a shame it would be to live at only 20 or 30 percent when the whole of this miraculous life is so readily available.

Right now, anything is possible. And in this very moment, 100% of life is ready to be lived.
