If only we’d stop trying to be happy we could have a pretty good time.
If only we’d stop trying to be happy we could have a pretty good time.
– Edith Wharton
When something is working great, it’s always a risk when you try to make it better. Often, you end up tearing apart that thing that you liked so much. That decision to change the status quo ends up altering things in a way you never thought possible. Once that change is made, there’s no putting the toothpaste back in the tube. The future is changed in a way that can’t be undone. However, there are those rare occurrences when shaking things up results in unexpected changes that you couldn’t imagine living without.
Those rare moments are what we all strive for. We live for the thrill of finding that pivotal moment when our lives change forever. Every one of these forks has its own sense of majesty and excitement, but when that moment of chance pays off there’s no greater feeling. When you get the reward you’ve been searching for there is no better way to describe life. You get to show the endless bits of randomness that you’ve finally overcome them and transformed yourself into a purposeful being. Tell them that they’ve been wrong all these years. Once you do that, nothing will stand in your way!
