When is the Special day in your life?

Hi all.

I had a great birthday on October 4th.

I became 42 years young (not old, haha)


After my workshop that day, the participants gave me a surprise present;
a big flower bouquet that put a huge smile on my face.


Birthdays are special for everyone.


What is the best birthday memory for you?


When you are kid, you might have a big party.


How about your 20th birthday?


40th birthday?


But birthdays are surely not the only important moments in our lives.


One of my friends told me that the day his daughter was born was the most special day for him.


Everyone has memories of these special days in their life.


Actually, every day is a special one for us.


No two days in our life are the same.


Today is not the same as yesterday.


And tomorrow won’t be the same as today.


The present moment cannot be experienced again.

It is better for us to live fully, here and in the now.


When you focus your energy on all the things you don’t have, you create worry and invite anxiety into your thinking.


Surely, we are better off when we ignore such thoughts.

Life is best lived when we are happy with the gifts with which we are bestowed.


This doesn’t mean your possessions.


It means what you carry inside of you.


Your values, your life mission and your philosophies are infinitely more valuable than your earthly possessions.


Money can help you to buy almost anything, but belongings alone will never bring you happiness.


If this is true, then why are we so obsessed with making money?


Because many of us are influenced by commercial messages every day.


We are faced with advertisements for designer clothes, luxurious hotels, and global brand names at almost every moment.

These things carry temptation and stimulate our consumption.


So, our hard-earned money is plunged into these merchants and corporations as the desire to spend takes over us.


But, wait a second.

Do we really need to have 20 different pairs of shoes, stay in every five-star hotel and spend all our money in fine dining restaurants?

No.


We don’t need these things to be happy.


Let’s forget about the things we don’t have.


It’s time to focus on what we do have.


Life can be short.


Don’t waste your time.


Use it to find yourself, find your purpose and polish your glowing inner beauty.


If you start thinking in this way, you will realise that every moment in life is precious.
