Appreciation
Everyone has their good days and their bad days, some of us handle those bad ones better then others, no matter what though it is important to appreciate and be grateful for all the days, good and bad. Gratitude is something that I feel many people lack, we live in a world where the grass is always greener on the other side and nothing is ever good enough. If your life is never good enough, or you are constantly trying to get more or do better, when are you actually ever enjoying life? We must remember to appreciate what we have and be grateful for the little things.
So many of us walk through this life blind to all the miracles, our minds filled with concerns and issues that really don’t matter. What is important is to focus on what is relevant and what makes us happy. Be grateful for a sunny day or be grateful for your child’s smile, small everyday things that so many of us see but don’t really register. We are conditioned at this point to struggle and to strive, and to want more, and in some ways this is fine as it helps us progress as a species and as individuals. But quality of life should never be sacrificed for success; we must work to live not live to work. Do your job well, in fact do it the best that you can, but love what you do and take the time to show appreciation for the little miracles in life.
Not everyday is going to be a good one, you might spill coffee on yourself in the morning or get a traffic ticket on the way to work but in the greater scheme of things it is important to understand what really matters. Be grateful for the food we eat, the sun in the sky, the air we breathe, be appreciative of your manager and co-workers that you have a place of employment. Be happy in the town you live in and the bed you sleep in, make it a point to smile often. This life is a collection of moments, enjoy as many of them as you can, and remember it is about perspective the world you live in is the world you create, make sure you appreciate it!
