Be thankful and appreciative of all the opportunities and gifts granted to you in life. You only live once, so live it like you mean it. Life should not be taken for granted, for it is a fragile thing that may be taken away from us at anytime and anyplace. Be sure those around you know how much you care for them and never stop loving life. Take things in stride a day at a time and don't worry about the little things. There are bigger issues to think about. One person can make a difference and truly change the world, whether it be the world as a whole, or one single person’s world. Smile and laugh as if you mean it, for life seems so much sweeter then. Take the bitter with the sweet, for no one’s life is perfect, as much as they may say or think that it is. Shit happens, and that’s just a part of life. Take each experience and use it as a lesson of life to be learned.

Live each day to the fullest. Do that which makes you happy, for life is a blessing given us once, and we should do everything in our power to make sure we enjoy it. No one can make you truly happy but yourself. Reminisce about the good old days, but remember to live in the present and think of the future ahead of you. Just smile at someone, and it will make their day a little brighter, not to mention your own. When telling someone you love them, mean it. People may come and go through your journey in life, but always remember that they affect yours and you too affect theirs. Life is a journey to be enjoyed, loved, and filled with happiness. Never forget those who have come before you, with you, and those who will come after.

Never forget.
