To love life full is a difficult concept- it always will be. But how can a body withstand everything we go through? It’s something I have yet to understand, but I don’t think it’s for us to understand. The fact is we as humans are powerful beyond measure- blessed with the abilities to breathe, feel, taste, touch, see, and hear. If we utilize all of these gifts, these privileges, we find ourselves in distinct matter of unbreakable joy, no matter how bad things are we can turn our faces towards the sky and smile, or with a contented face willing to take on the next day.
Henry Miller Said it best:
“Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.”
“Anyone can give up, it’s the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that’s true strength.”
We all just need to keep our best foot forward.
