How would you describe your life to others?
If I were to describe my life, I would say that my life is like the ocean. There is ups and downs in life which everyone will experience but each and everyone of us definitely will gain new lesson every time we fall hard on the ground. I have once posted a quote in tumblr "Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes. But, when you look back everything is different."
The moment I saw this quote from another tumblr, I straight away re-blog it. If you were to look back at the time you were born to this world till now, a lot of thing indeed changes. And if you realize your life is the sum result of all choices you made, both consciously and unconsciously. If you had a chance to go back in time, would you have done the same thing? or would you change your decision in some ways or decided to do it another way?
Of course, if you can control the process of choosing, you can take control of all aspects of your life. You can find the freedom that comes from being in charge of yourself. Well, if I were given a choice, I would just let things flow the way it should be because I know every decision that I make will always be wrong because in future, I will regret not choosing the other option. Making a decision is not an easy task for me. Some of you may think otherwise but that is me. Some things, once gone, could never be replaced.
All I want is consistency, like the ocean. But I know that the ocean is not consistent. Sometimes it can be calm and sometimes it can be roaring with waves. I know its kind of irony of me writing this but that is what makes it beautiful - unpredictable.
Life is rarely exactly the way we want it to be and that is the fact. Often people do not act as we would like them to be. As time goes by, there are aspect of life that we like while other don't. There will always be people who will disagree with you, do things differently, and most of the time for me, thing doesn't work out the way it should be. But still, we have to move on with life just that we have think it more in a positive way. Because I know that the longer you take to realize you can't go back to the past where things turn out the way it should be, the longer it takes for you to move on. Remember this - Some things are just never meant to be, no matter how hard we wished for. Grow up and accept it.
I know it is easy to say but the truth is, it is hard to accept it. But what can we do about it? All we can do is HOPE. Some may think otherwise, but if we do not have hope, there will not be tomorrow. Every night, we go to sleep. We have no assurance to wake up alive the next morning, but still, we have plans for tomorrow. THAT IS HOPE.
With a note to all:
Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every single cent? Of course. Each of us has such a bank. Its name is time. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to a good purpose. It carries no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposit, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against "tomorrow". You must live in the present on today's deposit. Invest as much as you can so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success. The clock is running. Make the most of today.
