Embrace life

 Happy people embrace life

It's true: yes they do...

They accept life's ups and downs

They take it on the chin

They never give up...never give in...

They know that life does not go 

In a straight line...don't you know?

They understand the process

Of living with a different focus

Of seeing everything a different way

That's because they learn from their mistakes

They realise that life is what you make it

They don't have to go along and fake it

They simply get on with it...

Knowing that for very pit fall

There is a way to get over it

For every down side there is an upside

They take life in little pieces

In little bites...one mouthful at a time

"How do you eat an elephant?

One bite at a time"

Rome wasn't built in a day

That's what they all say...

But what does it mean?

It means you take things slowly...

You do a bit each and every day...

One step at a time...

One day at a time...

If you tried to carry everything you needed

To live your life for the next ten years

You would collapse...fall in a heap...

It's too big a burden to bear...

Even in the Bible it says...

"Let today's troubles be enough for the day

Let tomorrow's troubles take care of themselves"

In other words...what is the use in worrying?

About tomorrow...you cannot do anything about it

You only load yourself with more stress...

So...embrace today and everything it brings...

Let tomorrow take care of itself...

It will be here soon enough!
