Feet covered in sand at the beach, reminding us to be present in the moment.

Some days, life feels like it’s rushing past you, like you’re standing still in a world that is flying by, especially this time of year… "Where has the year gone?" the most used comment in the last few weeks.

But one whisper from the 21 Whispers for Happiness e-book reminds us of a truth we forget too easily:

“Be where your feet are”.

We lose moments by chasing moments.

We try to capture everything and accidentally miss the thing right in front of us.

The sunlight on the table.

The face of someone we love.

The quiet breath we almost didn’t notice.

Life isn’t waiting for us somewhere else.

It’s happening here - in the smallness, the ordinariness, the now-ness of this exact moment.

So, pause.

Drop into your body.

Feel your connection to the ground beneath you, the air in your lungs, the steadiness under you.

Presence is a doorway.

Happiness walks through it.

Why happiness, and why now?

Because if not now, when?

If not here, where?

The only place happiness can ever touch you is the present moment - the one you’re in right now.

👉 If this whisper felt like an exhale, download the 21 Whispers for Happiness e-book for more poetic reminders to return to yourself and reclaim the beauty in the everyday.
