Back and forth between smooth sailing and ‘why did this have to happen to me’?

Difficult to imagine managing life’s busy, challenging, unrelenting tasks without a positive outlook.

For most of my life it was back and forth between smooth sailing and ‘why did this have to happen to me’.

Now?

Never complain.

Never feel sorry for yourself.

Work hard. Stay focused. Have as much fun as you can while doing it all.

It will not slow down until we die.

Incredible what a casual dinner with friends can surprise you with. Last night a friend shared he and his partner are getting married in Massachusetts next year.

Then later, just before dozing off, felt compelled to send him an email saying his news was by far the best thing of the entire day.

Love is all that matters. Compassion, kindness, hope, these are the things that bring joy to our world.
