There are two things to aim at in life; first to get what you want, and after that to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind has achieved the second. LOGAN PEARSALL SMITH

BE GRATEFUL


“I’m grateful for everything. I walk down the street and think, I’m not dizzy, my legs are working right, I can see straight and smell and hear clearly. It’s a nice day. I have a family that loves me and friends who will be there no matter what.”– Tennis player James Blake on what life is like after healing from a broken back.

I wish everyone will adopt this kind of thinking. Perhaps, if everyone will do, the world will be a better place and people will not try to chase after the success of others to try to be at par with them, people will be more contented, people will be happier and will have less sickness. I believe, most of the difficulties in life, attributes to the way we think. We should guard our thoughts all the time and we should try our best to harbor only positive thoughts that will keep us hopeful and happy, not bitter and discontented. Sometimes, we fail to see what we have because we are too much focused on what we don’t have and what others have.
Most people also, only see what they have and get to appreciate it once its gone. There are people in our loves that we tend to neglect everyday, and we only see them once they are gone. Time cannot be taken back. Once its gone, its gone. If we don’t embrace our life everyday as what we are supposed to do, we will miss life and we will have lots of regrets in life. Appreciate what you have, no matter how simple it is. In the end, its not what you have that matters. Not the things you possess, nor the beauty that you have, or the achievement you accomplished, but its the more valuable things that cannot be exchanged for anything. Love, yes…love. Love can come in any form. Open your eyes, and then you will see it. It’s just around the corner. It’s the best source of satisfaction in life, along with a good relationship with God. Let us start living now, and forget all the hurts and grudges we have for anyone. Let’s set ourselves free and learn to forgive.
