Focus on yourself.
CHERISH THE MOMENT.
The allegedly selfish tone of the above lines drowns out
the positive aspect of the statement: in times of hustle
and bustle, thirst for action and chasing "likes" we tend
to forget ourselves and live in the moment.
Certainly, every moment is followed
by the next, so there should
be enough of them for us to enjoy.
However, it is time to focus on being
fully present. Being aware of life. Because
life is as unique as every one
of us.
Listening to the soft rustling of the
leaves in autumn, marvelling at the
dancing dewdrops in the spring sun,
enjoying the humming of the bees in
summer or feeling the snow. Taking a
look behind the scenes of life. Deliberately
making time to do exactly this. And doing it
with all of our senses.
Because time flows relentlessly,
whether we like it or not. What happened
will be forever stored in the
past. Only our memories bear witness
to things that once existed. And this treasure
chest of memories wants to be filled.
With trivial things that often eke out an existence
on the side lines. The ostensible remedy for this
fast-paced life is to use time, our most precious good,
purposefully. Let’s take it back up on the fully-lit stage of
approval. In days gone by, life was led in harmony with
the sun and the moon. At sunrise people went up to the
mountain pasture or into the forests or fields to work.
They went to bed when the sun bade the day farewell.
With the invention of technology, we
took away some of time’s power.
With our smartphones ready, we desperately
try to capture the moment.
But while we're looking for the perfect
selfie, we’ve already lost sight of
the reason why we're staring at the
screen in the first place instead of
just enjoying the moment and simply
leaving the phone on standby without
having a guilty conscience. Of
course, it is now part of our adventures
to capture them on some device
and share them adding #voilässig
with our friends. But even Paracelsus
knew that it is the dose that makes the
poison. This is the reason why, for more
than a decade, we have put a KOMMA behind
everyday life by conviction. From the
Greek κόμμα (comma), which stands for cut or
break. Making a cut to living our lives to the fullest and
not getting lost in the daily routine.
To being aware of time.
To living in the moment.
