It’s a sin around here to not thoroughly enjoy every moment of every golden day. It’s embarrassing to answer, “Did you get out and enjoy the sunshine this weekend?” with “No, I stayed inside.”
Co-workers frown and exchange suspicious looks; apparently I’m one of those rain-loving slugs. I tried lying, but my pale plexion gave me away. Another mark in rain’s favor is that my body doesn’t betray me when it’s cold and damp outside. Throughout the winter, people wear several layers, with perhaps several extra pounds here and there. In June I dig out my shorts to discover my thighs resemble cottage cheese. I dread buying a swimsuit, as consecutive horror and humiliation make me cringe in the dressing room. Even my tastebuds prefer the rain. When it storms outside, it’s time for steamy hot chocolate or even a soothing toddy.
People devour hot, hearty meals, with lots of potatoes and savory sauces. This type of eating evaporates when the sun es out; suddenly everyone offers salads and ice water and expects it to be satisfying. It’s time to publicly acknowledge that I love the rain. How it transforms my house into a cozy cave where I can spend the afternoon
cooking and dreaming. It seems nobody else will admit to a love affair with the rain, nobody else will groan when
it’s hot outside and join me in a rain dance.
When the sun es out I do greet it with a smile,
slipping sunglasses to my purse and pulling a tank top out
of my closet. Yet my fortable sweaters and warm slippers beckon, making me wish for another wet, chilly afternoon. When the rain returns, I will grin even more. Am I the only one?
The Elements of Suess I don't believe that there is any one recipe for suess. Instead, I believe suess is the
result of a bination of a lot of different factors and not all of them are needed for suess. The more factors you have on your side, the more likely you are to sueed, and
positive attitude is just one of those factors. Here are seven additional factors that are also important. Knowledge.
A strong body of knowledge about the area in which you wish to sueed is often one of the key building blocks of suess. You can build this by pushing yourself, read and try out the foundational materials and push yourself into challenging areas to build your knowledge.
Get a life, a real life, not a manic pursuit of the promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not
leisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. Get a life in which you are generous.
Realize that life is the best thing ever, and that you have no business taking it for granted.
It is so easy to waste our lives, our days,our minutes. It is so easy to take for granted the color of our kids’ eyes, the way the melody in a symphony rises and falls and disappears and rises again…
It is so easy to exist instead of living.I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my option, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, sees to be the hardest lesson of all.
I learned to love the journey, not the destination.I learned that it is not a dress rehearsal, and that today is the only guarantee you get.
I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to get some of it back because I believe in it, pletely and utterly. And I tried to do that, in part by telling others what I had learned, by telling them this: consider the
lilies of the field, look at the fuzz on a baby’s ear, read in the backyard with the sun on your face, learn to be happy, and think of life as a terminal illness, because if
you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.。
