We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married,
have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't
old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that, we're
frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be
happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life
will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we
get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation or when we
retire. The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right
now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with
challenges.
It's best to admit this to yourself
and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure
every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it
with someone special, special enough to spend your time with ... and
remember that time waits for no one.
So, stop
waiting ..
Until your car or home is paid off.
Until you get a
new car
or home.
Until your kids leave the house.
Until you go back to school.
Until you finish school.
Until you lose 10 lbs.
Until you gain 10 lbs.
Until you get married.
Until you get a divorce.
Until you have kids.
Until you retire.
Until summer..
Until spring.
Until winter.
Until fall.
Until you die.
There is
no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not
a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like you've
never been hurt, and, dance like no one's watching.
If you
want to brighten someone's day, pass this on to someone special.
I just
did!
