Carpe diem.

I have spent a big part of my life trying to get through. Trying to get through a difficult time, a time of struggle, a time to try get to that moment of peace when I can just relax and enjoy the fruit of my labour. But at some point I realised something. Life is not about those moments of peace and relaxation. They can be nice and needed for shorter amounts of time, but life is the difficult stormy parts. Life is about struggeling but that's doesn't have to have a negative tone to it. I mean struggeling like in fighting in moving forward in evolving to something more. To always challenge yourself and never settle down and say "this is enough, this is fine". Our lives are changing constantly but don't take that as something bad. Move with it. Embrace the new things life brings you and remember the good things of you past with joy. That's the key to a happy and fullfilling life if you ask me. It's not necissarily easy, but what's the point of something being easy. Life is up's and downs. Life is happines and life is sadness. I don't think we would appricate the moments of joy if we didn't have the moments of sorrow. I guess this is why they say live in the moment. I guess it's quite wise.
