We are tested everyday; through our jobs, children, friends, and family, even with people we've never met. With that said We must find reasons, reasons to go further and make tomorrow count as if it's our last. If it weren't for these reasons, these wonderful distractions that mask the endless trials and tribulations, we would all be consumed with the awfulness that is hatred and despair. With that said we must rejoice in these dreadful flashes these flashes of light that all too often feel like our fate is setting in and realize if it weren't for these moments our triumphs would seem so grim. I find it hard to see the bright lemon-chiffon beaming from the end of the tunnel sometimes but life it too short.
Every moment can be deemed either horrible for its absence of sunshine or wonderful for the innocence that is protruding through, which ever it may be these moments shape our lives. Not because of the moment itself but rather the interpretation of each and how we react accordingly. We have a choice. To be miserable; is to choose to be. Happiness can be a way of life. I walk through life with a smile on my face and more often that not, it's contagious. Do I smile because i'm happy or because I long to be happy? We know who we are, it's the one we've always been, the one starring back at us every morning through that mirror. Although we may not like the image formed from our very reflection, today is not yesterday.
Today is new, maybe life changing, even grand if you let it. My friends are always going on about how lucky i am, lucky to be happy and settled and know exactly where i am in this crazy life. I'm not so sure. I believe that the luck that i take is equal to the luck that I create. I want this life to be amazing, i want to take from this world all it has to offer. I think that 2:34pm on a random Tuesday has an opportunity to be just as perfect as your first real kiss. Okay lets be real, no ones first kiss was perfect but you get the point. These passing moments must count for something much greater than me, so why can't we be happy while living in a world of dreams. Live for yourself to prosper and succeed in love and honestly, in all things that prove to be seamless time and time again.
You love your morning coffee but hate the man that cut you in line. Is it really that terrible that you hate someone for this, or are you really mad at yourself for sleeping in for an extra ten minutes and making yourself late? What if these situations could in fact have a different outcome or an entire change of attitude. Would we open the door more often for a stranger, or wave on another car to let them in. Would we smile and receive one in return.
Try it. Try to see the good in all situations and give back to the world what it's been trying to give to you for so long. To put it lightly, Life! A life full of happiness and a thousand smiles. Sometimes we are blinded to see life's full capacity and all that lies before us.
Live with a smile and watch what happens!
Love ya bye
