People ask why life is sometimes so full of pain. Well, without pain, would we learn how to appreciate happiness? Would people learn from their mistakes? Would people learn how to pick themselves up after they fall? Sometimes pain is the best teacher and through the pain, we learn how to show kindness to others.

The things that happen to us, even the bad, is part of us. It took me a long time to realize that it doesn’t have to define who we are. We get to decide that.

The Joy of Life comes from our encounters with new experiences and hence there is no greater joy than to have and endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

I’m officially missing you

soo weird how one second you’re here and the next you’re not. It’s a trip.. The hardest part is accepting that you’re gone. I’m realizing now to appreciate all the little things in life and don’t take anyone for granted. Makes me question have I really been living?? have I accomplished enough in my life to say I truly lived?
