Never Give Up. Never Let Go

'Never give up. Never let go', is something we are always told but sometimes letting go is the only way we can make space for something better. Sometimes letting go is the only way to know what is truly ours and what never was. For if we let go of something and it comes back to us, it was always ours, if it doesn't then well...we were never meant to have it.
Sometimes we want things very badly and life takes them from us, giving us something else in return. We may curse life, fate and time all we want but somewhere down the line we realize, life gave us what was best for us. Sometimes we want things and we get them...just not the way in which we wanted them. We begin to question our dreams, our desire but really the best thing to do is to enjoy the mess; Because before we know it, it will be gone and life will have sorted itself.
So here's to life and here's to living it! You have a life today, it will go on...
"Live it, Love it, Cherish it and Enjoy it!"

LIFE

"Life is not a river for rivers dry,
Life is not the wind for it stops blowing,
Life is not the sun nor the moon for they stop shining,
Life is life, Life is time; flowing, blowing,
shining... never stopping"

Life goes on and everybody has a choice. Everybody can chose whether to sit back and complain or to go with it. Everybody can chose to pick themselves up and live the life they have been given.
Life is like a good suspense story, you never know what twist awaits your arrival, just around the corner. One can predict one's life with just as much accuracy as one can count the number of hair on one's head.

Life throws on our paths many obstacles, some easy, some difficult, some expected and some unexpected. Somehow we always notice the easy expected ones after having crossed the others with a great deal of pain and perseverance. After having gone the long way around, we see the 'short-cut' but, then we realize something:
"The danger of the unknown,
The risk of the unexpected,
And our willingness to get there
no matter what,
These are the things that make 
our victory Sweeter, Better.
They make the difference,
The difference between Running and Winning"
In life many things come and many things go, but only those things stay:
"Things which really belong to us;
Things which we really work for;
Things which we really refuse to give up."
