Making every moment count.

Life, they say, is full of ups and downs, there are no laid down rules and regulations that tell us how to navigate through it, we just find ourselves trying very hard to navigate through life without its manual "because there is none".

I've found myself in situations where I would feel like giving up on life because of its nature and how I find it difficult to live, people say living life can be hard, "no doubt," when you are faced with the hard realities of life, "it becomes difficult." I know life can be difficult, and that's why we are given the freedom of choice.

We are blessed with the veto power to decide how life treats us; I can decide to be sad if that's what I choose; I can decide to be whatever I want. Living life isn't an easy task, every day that goes by, I try to make the most out of life by creating an environment of happiness for myself.

There are days I feel like crying my eyes out, after doing that, I feel a sense of satisfaction, and once that moment passes, happiness steps in. Life doesn't always give us what we want and that's the major reason we are given the responsibility of giving ourselves the kind of life we want.

Things I do that make me fall in love with my life every day, My life is a blessing and I'm gonna keep counting it that. One thing I do is "Worry less." Yeah! You heard right. I've come to realize that worrying doesn't change anything, it doesn't provide a solution to any problem. Rather, it fills the minds with unnecessary thoughts thereby contributing negatively to our mental health.

I've decided to worry less about things; there are things I can't change no matter how hard I try to, in scenarios like that, I just accept whatever is in front of me and learn to live with it. I don't worry about the things I don't have. Rather, I appreciate the little things I have around me and work toward achieving the bigger ones.

It is believed that happiness comes from within; it's in our power to create that happiness we desire; we have to get up every day to make the day look good. Another thing that brings genuine happiness to me is "contentment," being content with what I have, I am mindful and super grateful for the little things I have in my possession, I know often it's in our human nature to focus our attention on the things we don't have or can't have rather.

I find happiness in the things I have, and that makes every day great for me. And has made me fall in love with my life even more.
