There is something of ultimate significance that lies between the exhilaration of expectation and the desolation of disappointment. It’s a little thing called life.
A life well lived is a life lived between extremes. The beauty is that we get to pick our point of reference.
We can decide for ourselves whether we will allow sadness or happiness to dominate; to become the driving force in our daily existence. From this day forward we can write our own story.
The challenge is very much an individual one. What we do with who we are and what we have will determine the level of joy we get from our life.
No-one else can be the person we are. We walk in our own shoes and at our own pace.
We can take all that makes us unique and weaponise it against ourselves or we can take all that makes us unique and appreciate it.
Appreciation comes from understanding and understanding leads to improvement…a better us…a better life.
We all have something to give…a contribution to make…a reason for being. But first we must get to know the person we are.
Those who suffer most are those who understand least about themselves. So much of the pain so many suffer is self-inflicted. It need not be that way.
Change is always possible and it could start today.
