“I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.” - Groucho Marx quotes (American Comedian, Actor and Singer, 1890-1977)
Arthritis taught me a lesson of life to take each day like a new journeyJ. I start my day as if I am starting a new journey, leaving behind all the negative and positive instances of yesterday. I prefer to meet many new people on a new day of life.
Each day, I get out of my bed with acute stiffness and pain in my joints. But still I wear a smile on my face and hope in my thoughts that this is the best day of my lifeJ
Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways. ~Stephen Vincent Benét
It is true that every happy beginning has a happy ending.
It is true that every happy beginning has a happy ending.
Yesterday has no existence in your today. Let bygones be bygones. Yesterday is like a leaf of a tree that has shed from its branch and it does not matter where the wind has blown that leaf.
If yesterday was a day of achievement, you will celebrate it for the next few weeks. In case, it was a bad day, you will remember the unpleasant moments for the next few days.
To make it clear whether it was a good day or bad day, we have a nature to carry those moments to another day. This is not the real art of life.
If you will pick moments from ‘yesterday’ then you cannot start a new journey of ‘today’. ‘Today’ should be like a fresh food to eat, to digest and to welcome a happy ‘tomorrow’.
Be neutral in life, when it comes to moments around your ‘day’. Before you hit the bed, erase all good and bad moments with a thought that ‘I have to welcome tomorrow with a big smile and positive attitude’. If you are happy or sad, the feeling should end with the day itself. Remember, when you will wake up like a blank page of a word document, you can write a new story each day.
Your day will end happily, if you will let go off all the happy and sad moments of your day with a feeling to wake up and embrace a new day to start a new journeyJ.
To have a happy ending, you need to have a happy beginning. If you will have a happy beginning, you will have a happy ending. It is like a vicious circle!
“And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.”~Abraham Lincoln
