Sometimes, you don’t like the turn you’re currently at. You may want to go back. You may even want to fast-forward your life to a time when things are starting to look up again and you have better control over them. But, rewinding and fast-forwarding your life is simply impossible (unless you’re a time traveler). Today seems like a never-ending dream, and tomorrow feels like a distant one. You, my friend, are having a bad day!
Looking back at the memories make you smile and remember the good old days. Sometimes, it even makes you cry. Often, you wonder, how did you end up here? Here’s where you take a moment and pause. Look around you. This is now, the present. Soon, you will reach the destination, where you always wanted to go. Soon, you’d be rid of these feelings.
But today matters! This seemingly unwanted turn in life matters! It defines you; it makes you choose who you want to be. It gives you a great gift of choice. This is the choice to think, the choice to act, the choice to speak, and the choice to steer your life. This will shape the direction in which you want to go. Have fun with the present, and be present in the now!
You have a choice to make things better again. Only this time, take time to nurture yourself, love your hardships, and grow in the right way. You know that there will always be bad days but you are the one who’s got to make the most of it. Bad days will always turn to good and eventually, so will your life.
