Sharing is Living

Today I watched a video that touched me like no other video has done. It was simple but the message was so powerful that changes our perspective towards life. We get so attached to all this material things, aspirations and success like there is nothing more important in this world than that. But what about laughter, love, friendship, kindness, forgiveness and so many other that provide us with a better life with more significance. From time to time we need to stop and look around ourselves, and be grateful for everything we already have, to be thankful that we are healthy, loved and cared. No matter our career goals or material goals, we need to create personal growth goals. Ones that will make us better and happier. It's as simple as helping someone in need or carrying someones bags. No matter how little and simple it may be, it still be a step forward to something better.

Since I was a little i knew that I was destined to something bigger and better than what I can imagine. And I 'm not bragging or something like that, it's just I always wanted to reach greatness. Five year old me thought I would find it in work or relationships, but twenty year old me thinks that the greatness I am looking is found in the simple details every day brings. A laughter, a dance, a conversation with a friend, a hug from a loved one, a kiss and so on. Happiness is the greatness I am truly looking for, and even though I am still working to obtain it, I live my day one day a time because you never know when will be the last.

Sometimes my sadness feels too heavy that I forget how to breath and fake a smile.
