The Curtis Rule

Although Richard Curtis's film 'About Time', didn't rock my world so to speak (although it did make me want to weep, but luckily I refrained), it did have a wonderfully great idea at its centre. 

It's this: 'Live each day as if you are living it for the second time'. 

The time travel element of the film sees a character have a normal day, with all the usual stresses and strains but then he lives it again and savours each moment. Time with family, the small details, nature are all there to be savoured but we barely stop to appreciate these wonders until they are lost to memory. 

It's one thing that I can say I've done with my son. I give him my full attention every moment I'm with him. Tomorrow is too late. Every year you will wish you were turning the birthday age before again. So savour it. 

As I always say "everything changes" as nothing will stay the same.
