Effort to get through the day

As I've gotten older, I've had a few more aches and pains, gained a few more pounds, and gotten more settled. I've also learned that the days have more value than the day before. It's as though I can see my life winding down and I'm appreciating each day more now. With that in mind, I'm motivated to get up and do something. Usually I read my Bible, pray, think about stuff, watch the sun rise and then usually react to the day. I don't want to miss a thing. I watch people that miss out on the best part of the day and just let time slip away. I play a game on FB and my wife says I'm wasting time, and she's right, but I justify it by thinking its serving some purpose. The effort I use to get through the day is motivated by the fact, that if I'm not doing something(productive or not), it's better than sleeping, which in my mind is like letting time go and not realizing it. I love life and the best part of any day is talking to anyone...that is what makes my day worthwhile.
