Sure things could be different. Maybe they could be better too. Though maybe this is better than the alternative. Don’t wish it away in any case.
Who knows what tomorrow brings. The grass is always greener. So don’t throw away today to gamble on tomorrow being better for you in the way that you want. It might happen. But what are the odds? How many of the last 7,000 or 14,000 days have turned out precisely as you had hoped and dreamed?
Together, all of those days make up the great tapestry of your life. Ups and downs, triumphs and tribulations, challenges and celebrations. Sing when you’re winning. But don’t pout when you‘re down and out.
”Don’t wish it away, Don’t look at it like it’s forever”
Elton John
One of my favourite songs is this Elton John classic. I’ve enjoyed it throughout my life. Those first two lines are so catchy and are appropriate at so many times. It can slap you awake and out of complacency. Those words remind me that life is short. You’ve got to, “live every second, without hesitation”.
You learn in the tough times. Don’t miss the lessons that are there for the taking.
Sometimes you have to live like there’s no tomorrow. Because one day there won’t be one.
Don’t wish it away.
