Life's like an electrocardiogram !
In everyone's life there are difficult times that unless you live them you can't perceive their depth. On the other hand, there are times that moments are in your favor and it's like you're on cloud nine; everything is in the way that's enjoyable and you can say it's the down-slope of one's life.
I'm sure we all go through the above in different ways. What's grabbing my attention lately is the way we put these happenings together and understand them as a whole.
I believe the above ideology resembles an electrocardiogram where high picks are like the tough times and low points are the down-slopes of our lives. As long as there are tough and easy times in our lives, we are alive and breathing.
'A straight line represents death' !!!
I think sometimes we forget to see what we have rather than don't have. It would be a good habit to write them down on a piece of paper and look at them every now and then.
It's ironic that things which many people don't think of in this way are so priceless and can be truly considered one's life-time wealth. Examples would be one's health, the fact that one can laugh at a joke whenever he wants, that fact that one can remember a beautiful moment in life and genuinely feel content, the fact that one can speak, see, hear, smell and touch. These are one's most basic possessions in life but the absence of which can be immensely hard to live with.
- It's always pleasing to rest after a day of hard work. Resting after a day of resting will always be more tiring.
I believe, we should start thinking a bit differently about our live's moments and enjoy every second, be it a good one or not.
Cheers!
