Make Every Day A Masterpiece

We need to remember that we only have so many breathes to take in this life. So many heartbeats to use. So many seconds, and minutes, and days that are ours before everything becomes a memory in someone elses life. None of us live forever, and none of us have forever, and each of us has to use our time wisely to find happiness, and peace, and joy, and love.We need to invest our time wisely, as it is the only time we get. I find many people who are older and miserable because of how they invested their time. It is never to late to change things and start moving in new directions, and it is certainly never to late to find happiness.

Learn to live each day one at a time, and as though it were the last day of your life, and remember to make each and every day a masterpiece. The story of your life is a very personal one. No one else lives your life and has your experiences. No one else feels what you feel. Of course, we all share similar emotions and such, but no one else feels them from your perspective and your mind and your heart. Remember to make each day and each moment of your life count. Make sure it moves you closer to what you want and who you want to be. Especially make sure it moves you closer to being able to find happiness and joy in your daily life.

Are you currently living a life that is worthy of you? Do you do things on a regular basis that allow you to feel happiness and accomplishment? Are you regularly involved in projects and activities that allow you to feel a sense of purpose and drive? Have you created a life up until now that is worthy of you, and if you haven't are you willing to start today? If you can't say yes to any or all of the questions above, try to remember that it's never to late. The only time it is to late is when you take your very last breath. Until then, there is always time to start moving in new directions.

Life is such a valuable thing, and so many people waste it on a regular basis. They plop themselves down in front of the brain sucker, sorry, television and waste their entire night there. I am not saying that people shouldn't watch television or that taking time to relax is a bad thing. What I am saying is that few people take the time to find a purpose for themselves or things to devote themselves to. Many people don't even put much energy into their relationships which are things that should be a source of joy and happiness on a regular basis. But we must work on everything for it to give us any type of reward. We cannot just fall in love and expect it to bring us joy and happiness. We have to put energy and effort into it in order to get something back. The same is true for everything else in the world. So what would bring you joy and happiness, and are you starting to move toward those things? If not, then right now would be a good time to do so. If you don't know what those things are, then right now would be a good time to start figuring it out. Go forth and find your happiness and joy in this world, because you deserve it, because it is a much better experience than misery and sorrow.
