Celebrating Life and Love

Celebrating Life and Love

Life does not always turn out the way we would want it to be. Things we wish would happen just don't. Things we hope will never happen - do. When we lose something of value, for example, we get frustrated and deeply hurt. Sometimes, we lock ourselves away from the rest of the world because we just don't want to deal with it.

Then, as time passes, we might realize that we've deprived ourselves from enjoying life and the blessings that we have. Any person who celebrates life moves past the negative. They avoid the nay-sayers, or hold little value to what they say. You just have to realize that sometimes things go well - and go awry at other times.

You don't have to feel the need to control every aspect in your life. It is within this acceptance that will you free yourself from unnecessary burdens.

To celebrate and enjoy life and love, keep these thoughts in mind:

1. Pursue your dreams with passion. Do what you desire with all vigor and zeal and don't allow distractions to delay your dream. Let your passion be your fuel.

2. Be proud of who you are. We may be far from perfect, but isn't that the point? It gives us something to strive for. Life would have been so boring if it were not this way.

3. Count your blessings. We may not have everything we want, but we do have some of them. A loving family, great friends, steady job. Whatever it may be, at least we have something we can be proud of.

4. Live life with a positive attitude. Discover what you're good at and use your talent to help you achieve your dreams. Ask friends for advice and let them help you. A helping hand or two does a world of difference.

Chasing your dream will not be easy. However, you have your entire lifetime to take action. Pursuing your dream is always worthwhie and age is unimportant here. A great life is a life filled with self-acceptance and self-love. Acknowledge who you are and be proud of how far you've come. Pat yourself on the back for every good thing that happens, and learn to share your good fortune.

When you share what you have and what you've learned, people will reciprocate your kindness. To be surrounded with love is but the greatest joy there is. Life is a gift, but it is up to you to discover life's surprises. Welcome everything that comes your way. Learn from life and live for tomorrow. The past can no longer be changed, but the future can still be altered.

The changes rest in your hands.
