Adjust and polish

Adjust and polish

The time for spring cleaning is here, as well as a friendly reminder that it's time to adjust your behavior and take a good look at it. Do you like what you see? What can you adjust and what can you polish?

The trees and plants in my backyard are sprouting. The greenery is coming and before you know it, you can't see through the trees. Leaves are reappearing on branches, and the woods are coming to life. It's one of my favorite seasons; to me, it's essential to see that life still goes on even after a harsh winter. Sometimes, when the sun sets early and the clouds are darkening, the sky is pours with rain and it seems to feel endless. The bright reminders in-between make it all the more bearable.

The good news about life is that everything has a beginning and an end. Whenever you have bad days, good days are bound to follow. This is the full circle in life. Nothing in life is guaranteed, except that it will go on.

A while ago I heard someone say this: "The dead should be celebrated, because if you lived your life well, there is nothing to be feared."

That being said, I try every day to celebrate my life. I do what I like to do, and make sure that every day is counted for. Life is too short to do anything else but celebrate and to keep living. Have a blessed week.


Change your behavior, change your life!
