Live Each Day

Live each day as if it is your very last one, do the things you dream of today, for tomorrow never comes or you get too old. Grab each and every opportunity you meet. Look back often yet always move forward learning as you go through life. Put regrets far behind you they are done, most can not be undo however much you wish. Cut out the sad and the bad embrace instead joy in the little things like a beautiful flower. Smile at others as you pass them by, spread your warmth of spirit and enrich others. Lift your face up to the sun and bask in the heat of its life giving rays. Enjoy the mysteries of the night and the magic cast by the moon. Think life is good and you will be filled with contentment and happiness. Never scowl why waste the time? Life is far to short to hold a grudge.

This is such a happy positive write. It is so easy to dwell on life's hurdles instead of simply being glad we got over it. This is a 7 from me. Peace my friend:)
