Someone fell in love today. Someone was born today. Someone lived through something that could have killed them. Someone won back the love of their life. Someone made their parents proud. Someone survived. Someone healed. Someone let go.
Eight billion people, and some of us have just had the best day of their lives. Today may have been the very worst day of yours. But take solace and celebrate this simple fact. It wasn’t your best day today, but it is on it’s way, because we all get lucky in turn. (Not my words.)
Make your life about joy. Celebrate your big and little wins. Grow everyday. Enjoy the first sip of your morning coffee, and the second and third and fourth. Find something to smile about on your commute. Give hugs often. Compliment others whenever you can. Get inspired. Nourish yourself.
Go outside and spend time in nature. Take chances. Make the art. Watch the sunrise. Climb the mountain. Because LIFE is just too short and fragile to not live a life of chasing joy.
Congratulations on breaking out of that dysfunctional pattern. Three years ago, you wouldn’t have made the decisions you’re making now. Celebrate your growth.
No matter what is going on in your world, no matter what happens today, do everything with a joyful heart. During the highs and lows, choose a stance of celebration. Every day, choose to find something to be thankful for. Decide to find the gold, and resolve to look for the happy moments.
If you can’t find anything to be joyful about, remember this: you are alive with a beating heart and air flowing through your lungs. This means your work here is not finished, and you haven’t reached your story’s end. You have a purpose; you have a dream that needs you to bring it to life. That is something to be joyful about and celebrate. DO EVERYTHING WITH A JOYFUL HEART.
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. Apparantly PROFESSIONAL MODEL BLOWER is a real thing, even though this video is hella funny. 2 minutes of pure fun. Don’t miss it.)

Seven billion people, and some of us have just had the best day of their lives. Today may have been the very worst day of yours. But take solace and celebrate this simple fact. It wasn’t your best day today, but it is on it’s way, because we all get lucky in turn. (Not my words.)
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. I share what entices me, this National Geographic series on God & Mythology by Morgan Freeman is fascinating. It’s about the word APOCALYPSE. Watch it for fun & little bit knowledge.)
LIFE should be lived with a spirit of adventure, loads of good conversations and a heart ready to celebrate and embrace others. LOVE your lover, make love under the stars, let spontaneity lead, keep things fresh and say “I LOVE YOU” a million times a day. SHARE a meal and glass of wine with your tribe. Don’t be stingy with what’s in your hands. Be generous with your words, your creativity, your love. LIVE large, and listen to your convictions. Don’t let the sun go down on anger. And be bold even when you feel like retreating to your safe little cave! Most importantly have faith in almighty with all your heart, mind and soul. (Not my words.)
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. There’s a reason i can’t watch any series in Netflix, I can’t keep up with something random for ages unless it’s something SciFi or Supernatural & Animation. This song is trippy tho, goes with the kinda movies kicks my mood.)
Most of our lives move at such an accelerated pace we don’t always have the time to stop and reflect on how far we’ve come. We are usually too busy looking ahead. But it’s so important to keep checking in with yourself. We change all the time. It’s easy to get caught up feeling dissatisfied with where you are when you don’t take the time to appreciate how far you’ve come. You don’t have to be exactly where you want to be, but the fact that you are on your way is remarkable. Good things and progress take time.
Make today all about celebrating how far you’ve come in your life since last year. What is something you’ve changed in your life that you are proud of?
Remember how far you’ve come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be. -RICK WARREN.

Find someone who loves you well. Someone who never belittles you even in the heat of an argument. Someone who is gentle with you, but does not treat you like you are fragile. Someone who knows what you are capable of, and celebrates those pieces of you. Not someone who is intimidated by your strength. Someone who doesn’t make you feel guilty for being flawed. It is not love’s job to punish you. And remember the person you love is just as broken as you are when they fall short. No one is perfect do not hold them to this standard.
Find someone who is patient, consistent, forgiving, and apologetic. Someone who practices forgiveness freely and often. Love someone who is humble, kind, and empathetic. Not only with you, but with a beggar on the street, or a stranger in the supermarket. Common courtesy is important. Compassion is important. Kindness is important.
Now that i mentioned something about relationships twice in a day, my university friends will again start questioning whether i am seeing someone! Let me answer even before that question pops up. Most of my posts are scheduled a month advance. Typing these two paragraphs today right before the post goes live.
I entertained something inconsistent for a while. Whatever happened, I am not strong enough to blame or hate anyone. Let’s say, that was my fault. I am in the process of becoming single. In Snapchat, if you see my hands resting on some girl’s fine 🍑, high chances it’s either my bestie DEMI or my neighbour girl. Yes, i have a ting towards athletic girls.♌ But I don’t have a TYPE whom i want to date. First i have to be ready, next the connection must vibe positivity & remain consistent, that’s all. The most beautiful part about a girl where my heart goes little weak; when i feel she is grabbing my arms little stronger looking into my eyes with a wide big bright smile, while crossing baby/kid’s clothing section in shopping malls. Everyone knows i adore kids, they are angelic to me. 2023 goal is to become the best A+ dad world has ever seen, and i will settle to be a good B+ boyfriend/husband i guess.😂
You have to chase the things that ignite you. You have to do the things that bring you joy. You have to surround yourself with the people who bring you back home to yourself, with the people who respect you and embrace you in ways that make you feel like you are worthy and accepted and celebrated and loved. You have do the work to heal yourself, even when it hurts especially when it hurts, so that you do not continue to approach your life within the boundary of what is heavy within you. You have to put yourself out there, and you cannot worry about what other people think, you cannot rob yourself of experience or happiness or inspiration because you are scared of how you will be perceived. You have to be unapologetic in the way that you exist here. You have to believe that your ideas, and your hope, and your being, deserve to take up space. You have to believe that you have purpose.
Because our existence is finite. And as hard as that is to understand, as hard as that can be to connect with, from time to time remind yourself that in the most human way we are all living on borrowed time. We live as if we are promised the experiences and the potential we are chasing, we live as if we have control over what happens to us. But we don’t, and that is liberating, because it is pressing there is urgency within the lesson. It is meant to wake you up. Life is meant to be lived. (Not my words).
We assume success is about being famous, rich and owning expensive things. But if you’ve pulled yourself out of a dark place, that’s a great success in itself. Don’t forget that you’re winning each day you don’t give up and you make it through to the next.
Did you know that you’re achieving great things every day? It probably doesn’t seem like it if you’re always looking ahead to the next thing. Nevertheless, many of the things you’ve achieved today are things you dreamed about in the past. You just don’t notice them in the moment they happen. Or they pass you by too quickly.
Although we shouldn’t get so comfortable with our achievements that we become complacent and stop moving forwards, we should make time to celebrate them. Otherwise you’ll look back on your life and think you didn’t do anything significant. But if this were true, your life would always have remained the same. Celebrate your achievements, even though they are little.
Be proud of how you’ve been handling these past months, the silent battles you fought, the moments you had to humble yourself and pat yourself on the back. Celebrate your strength.
Liking someone is a choice. Choose those with whom you can vibe & grow. That’s an easy way to understand, appreciate, cherish & celebrate any equation. Life is fun, let it be.
😜YES I like to talk/flex little bit about my sneakers, hoodies and watches. What you don’t know is; most of the clothes & shoes I wear are a gift. Not the same for my watches. Way back my dad taught me the value of owning a timepiece & why you need to wear it with respect even though you can check the time in your phone. WE MEN CELEBRATE EVERY LITTLE SUCCESS BY GIFTING A WRISTWATCH TO SELF.
I value few people and we are connected, because I LOVE myself & I see bit of myself in you. Anyday you have a option to choose between earning my RESPECT or my LOVE; please pick RESPECT, i swear I will celebrate you like none.
Money is not the most beautiful or happiest thing about life, moments & memories are the ones. If you will not celebrate them in right time, they will slip away from life.
