Arabic Proverb
There are 24 hours in a day comprised of 1440 minutes and 86400 seconds. Each person on our planet has the exact same amount of time. Time doesn’t classify by wealth, place of birth, or religious belief. How we use our time writes the story of our life. Each 24 hours is a chapter. One page (an hour) doesn’t make a day, there are still 23 hours remaining. We often give the negative experience power well beyond the time of its existence. If we isolate a negative experience to the one hour of its existence we can tell ourselves, “I’ve still got time to make it a great day.” Yes we do. Take control of your time.
We all want a long, healthy, and happy lifetime. There are no guarantees with the long and healthy parts. We can do our best to exercise, eat healthy foods, and get proper sleep; these all help but they do not guarantee a long and healthy life. It is possible to be happy during the lifetime that we have. Happiness is more of an attitude toward life than it is something we can acquire. Some of the happiest people I’ve met are those with the least. Conversely, some of the unhappiest people I’ve met are those with the most. Happiness doesn’t depend on one’s wealth, it is how we look at each moment. Whatever the length of your lifetime, make the most of it, enjoy every moment of happiness.
