“However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.”
― Henry David Thoreau
Life is filled with good times and bad times. It is filled with extreme highs and unimaginable lows. And there is nothing you can do to avoid it. Pain is as much a part of life as joy. Because of this, we must all focus on embracing the unedited version of life. Love your life. . .for you get but one chance to live it!
