Is this an I-can't-wait-for society?

Dedicated to an Energetic Greeter- Angelica Constantino
Do we live in an " I-can't-wait-for society?"

I can't wait until I graduate college.
I can't wait until Friday.
I can't wait until the summer.
I can't wait until the semester is over.

But once we get there, do we put in the full effort to enjoy every moment at that time? Or do we continue to take life for granted and look for another time in the future to be happy? Why does it seem that no matter what situation we are in we will find a way not to be happy?

Happiness is being able to live Right Here, Right Now. That means choosing to be happy despite your situation. Still don't believe me? Children are great advocates for happiness. Everything means so much to them and they are excited over every aspect of their life.

"I'm happy that I am me, who always chooses to be happy."
