Life is too short

We all of those moments when we contemplate what's important in life and what do we want to get out of our lives. A big thing we all look for is a happy, care-free existence, but in order to get to that point in life, there are a few things that we have to work towards. I agree with pretty much everything in this article.

It's important to keep a positive attitude, appreciate yourself and your body and to be happy with what you have. As sad as it is money does play a role in our happiness, it's important to be aware of your money problems but we shouldn't dwell on our financial shortcomings. One of the biggest things is this idea of perfect, of having the perfect life, perfect family, perfect job. There is no such thing as perfect and you will never achieve this. But there is maybe your ideal life and it may not be the same as someone else. Essentially, why should we be so concerned with other peoples lives, and what they think of ours, when we should be focused on create the best life we can in the way that we want to? Just as the article says life is too short for these types of worries. Everyone's different and so is their lives, it's because of all these differences that our world is so diverse. Not only that but it should make us thankful for having our very own lives and stories.
