“ I woke up feeling very happy today because I knew it was gonna be the best day of my life. As I went to bed, I carried a joy that a child has as if he was about to experience something exciting the next day, because I knew tomorrow is gonna be the best day of my life.”
That’s a paraphrase of what I heard from sermon this morning.
I have to say, I haven’t had such a nice day in a short while. And I haven’t meant what I say as much as everything that I said today.
I spent my day in separate sessions with three good friends, and it was purely pleasant. We shared thoughts and caught up with each other’s life, we helped and heard each other out.
I also enjoyed today and those individual sessions so much because I was in a way forced to be independent. I’m thankful for that, because it feels like it has brought me to another level in my relationship with myself.
It’s so nice to have different people in your life, and it’s amazing how things happen in such bad ways that turn out to making you stronger and become more familiar, comfortable, and confident with yourself.
Perhaps this is the pattern of life.
This is a temporary life, therefore things will not be perfect, but that’s the point of life—imperfections and problems. It only affects you deeply if you were so attached to it, it being this temporary life and everything that comes along with it.
I realized, everyone needs these issues, these imperfect relationships in life for things to get better and for one to work it out. It is all for you to develop, for your own sake.
So next time when you encounter problems—any problem—frown, but don’t frown for too long. Learn to embrace and accept the fact that there are problems in life and they are never one-sided, as in you are usually part of the problem as well. Learn the lesson, then move on and enjoy yourself. Feel free to indulge in imperfections, because they make life perfect.
