I live by these words. I believe life is beautiful, no matter how difficult. Every day we wake up, we never know what’s in store for us. It’s exciting and wonderful to just be alive, that’s why it’s “being alive”. Being alive is amazing, and fulfilling. Before we know it, life is over. What we anticipated, what we were excited for, what we were waiting for, even what we were stressed about. It all comes and goes so quickly. Before we know it, it will all be over. So life is beautiful, life is all about living. So let’s never stop living, let’s never stop trying to live.
Too much of the time, life is taken for granted. When things don’t go according to plan, what was pursued wasn’t gained, when something unplanned occurs, it becomes difficult to appreciate life; leaving it difficult to feel lucky to have anything to begin with. The only thing that can be done with life is to live it.
Tragedy happens every day. So why is so much of our time taken up by us forgetting how beautiful life is? It’s because we forget to live, we start to get into a schedule and end up just being alive. Being alive is more than just waking up to an alarm and starting the day off with a cup of coffee then ending it with brushing our teeth. To be alive is to live. Living is stepping out of our comfort zones, trying new things, being open minded, just trying to get the most out of everything we have. So let’s not die young full regrets of things we wanted to do.
