This year I have
noticed a lot of different people I follow online, who have had birthdays so
far this year (it’s early, it’s only May!), are sending out emails with a list
of what they’ve learned up to whatever age they are now.
Some of the lists
are very unique to the person, and some are a list of pretty obvious things
they should have learned years ago, not just in the last decade!
Well...today is my
birthday, and………..I don’t have a list.
I know that no
matter how bleak things may be, they won’t stay like that forever. Life ebbs
and flows, and there is ALWAYS a solution to ANY problem, even if we don’t see
it right away.
Our lives are so
much better than we realize. We just need to pay attention to all the joy and
magic all around us each and every day.
We choose how we view our lives, and that determines our enjoyment of life.
