Would you choose to relive this moment? If you were given the choice to return to any day, any time, of your life (after you’ve since died) would today be a consideration? If your answer is “no” then I challenge you to change it. Not your choice, but your day. Start treating these moments differently. Start romanticizing the boring moments, the simple activities. Become proud of yourself for each accomplishment you achieve, even if it’s as simple as you didn’t yell at your sibling when they brought up that one specific topic. The reality is, life is not going to be perfect and you’re not always going to feel happy. You’re not. But you can do your best to create happiness. You can do your best to make the most of each moment. Look for the beauty in the mundane, in the ordinary find the extraordinary. Life is unpredictable and we don’t know how much time we have left. I don’t want to have a life full of regrets, full of missed opportunities. I want a collage of embarrassing and life changing stories, a collection of beautiful mundane moments and simple choices that, when added together, made all the difference.
