Changes

Maria Robinson:

"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."

Changes:

They happen all over, the world is constantly changing and we either have to embrace them and move forward, or ignore them and remain motionless.

Many changes will happen in life. If you do not like something that is going on in your life, if you wish for a reset button or perhaps a due over, YOU have to be the one to make the change. No one else is as in control of your situation than you. Sure, something may have moved to shape your past, but was it shaped as a means for a better future? there should be no regrets, everything that happened in the past has made you into the person you are today. If something had changed, a different version of you would exist. Look at yourself, are you happy with the you that you are? if so, then you have embraced the changes that made you. If not, make the changes, be the person you want to be. Don't be afraid to take that class, or to go on that blind date, or to buy that little number you have been looking at for ages. All I am saying is be the change you wish to see in yourself. Embrace change, do not run from it.

Question of the Day: if you could go back and do it all over again would you?

Plans

JOHN LENNON:

"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."

Plans:

Isn't it funny how nothing ever goes as planned? or maybe it goes as planned just not as we had hoped? are all of our actions predestined? is someone out there pulling the strings and changing our plans?

I like to think that something is in charge of our lives, some force, we cannot see it or touch it, we simply feel it. Something that tells us to wait five minutes to leave, or take another route home. Something that irrevocably changes our plans without notice. Life has a way of changing things and we should embrace the changes. Instead of getting mad that your plane is late, or that a car in front of you is driving slow, accept it. You cannot change these things and to get upset over them will benefit no one. So, even if everything isn't going as "planned" they are happening for a reason. Embrace that reason.

Question of the Day: if you could plan out your whole life, without anything ever changing, would you?

Life

ABRAHAM LINCOLN:
"And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years."

Life:

Nobody every tells you how hard it will be. There is no preparing for it. No way that you can know what and when something is coming for you. It is an adventure, something you cannot experience the same way twice. Its not something to be feared, or to shy away from. It is meant to be lived. That is why it is called "life".

The only advice I can give you is to embrace it. Hand yourself over to life and just go with it. Take those little adventures you never have "time for", try new things and don't be afraid of "messing up". There are do do-overs, no take backs, so do it all. None of us know how long we will grace this existence so make the most of it. It may sound cliché but live every moment, laugh every day, and love beyond words.

Question of the day:

If there was a way to find out the exact day you would die, would you do it?
