Choosing a different path in your life path is scary , changes terrify us and most of the time this causes our dreams to remain in the drawer, full of dust. As Pablo Neruda used to say:

dies slowly he who doesn’t risk certainty for uncertainty

I believe we should live our life thinking that yes nothing comes easy, but yet not is impossible. Taking a different direction and leaving our habits can be painful at the beginning (and I can assure that since I have faced many changes in my life) but it also represents a beautiful and unique opportunity to grow as an individual and to better understand yourself.

Today I wanted to share with you one of my favorite poems. It summarizes everything I am trying to deliver with this article. I have had a hard copy printed out and glued on my bathroom mirror for a long long time so that everyday i can remind myself how amazing life is and how lucky i am to be alive. I like it so much that I tattooed part of it on the back of my shoulder.

Happy reading dear followers, I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.

Life is beauty, admire it.

Life is bliss, taste it.

Life is a dream, realize it.

Life is a challenge, meet it.

Life is a duty, complete it.

Life is a game, play it.

Life is a promise, fulfill it.

Life is sorrow, overcome it.

Life is a song, sing it.

Life is a struggle, accept it.

Life is a tragedy, confront it.

Life is an adventure, dare it.

Life is luck, make it.

Life is too precious, do not destroy it.

Life is life, fight for it.”

My life has been a dream so far and I cannot wait for the next adventure!
