Life Comes At You Fast...

But so does death

Life comes at you fast.

But so does death.

Don't die waiting for your life to happen.

Client doesn’t appreciate you? So what? If you get paid, that’s appreciation enough. Don’t waste a minute about all those times you did amazing stuff that has gone unrecognised. Maybe it did. Maybe that’s why they’ve remained your client.

Boss says something harsh? So what? That might not be your management style, and it might not even be her management style, but it’s just style.

Are you going to let your mind get mired in pain over a couple of words while grass is green, while flowers grow, while bees produce honey, while the flora of the world gives you the oxygen you never notice?

While your heart beat one more time during your brief sojourn on this earthly domain?

So you saw a tweet that upset you for a moment. Fine, but it wasn’t a message from the relative of a beloved friend letting you know they passed away, was it? How soon would you forget that tweet then?

Nearly everything you think is bad is ruining your calibration of what really is bad.

Death is an event, life is not.

Life is an unfolding miracle of impossible odds. Be in your life, with all you can muster, no matter how little that might be.
