STOP SMILING

Losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But, losing your reason for the journey is a fate more cruel

Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever.

I think its my turn to do the leaving for once.

Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small like when we do a bad thing for a good reason. Some are bigger like when you let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain of regret by making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret because we’re looking forward to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past, and sometimes we bury our regret by promising to change your own ways.
But, our biggest regrets are not for the things we did — but, for the things we didn’t do. Things we didn’t say that could’ve saved someone that we cared about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that’s headed their way.

…But sometimes they come back.

Oliver Wendel Homes once said, Many people die with their music still in them. Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it….time runs out.

There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart’s desire. The other is to gain it.

It’s been said that the saddest thing a man will ever face is what might have been ? But what of the man who’s faced with what was? Or what may never be? Or what can no longer be? Choosing the right path is never easy. It’s a decision we make with only our hearts to guide us. But sometimes we find our way to something better. Sometimes we fight through the regret and remorse of our mistakes, our malice and our jealously and the shame we feel for not being the people we were meant to be. And that’s when we find our way to something better or something better finds its way to us.

All are architects of fate… so look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again.

— Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Make a wish and place it in your heart. Anything you want, everything you want. Do you have it? Good. Now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is gonna come from, the next smile, the next wish come true. But if you believe that it’s right around the corner, and you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it, to the certainty of it. You just might get the thing you’re wishing for. The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it. With all your heart.
