Sometimes, good things happen unexpectedly. They really do!
Money is like a lover who plays hard to get.
If you try to hold onto it, it will find ways to slip away. If you chase it, it runs. But if you act indifferent and turn your back, it might get curious and nudge you playfully.
Once upon a time, I went through a phase where I didn't worry about money and lived a bit recklessly. (Definitely not because I had a lot of money). I basically just played around.
I used to worry a lot when I played, but somehow, I just let go and ended up playing for a longer period.
When my money ran out and I was wondering what to do next, I found unexpected money in my bank account. It was the first time that had ever happened.
I remember being incredibly surprised.
“This can happen to me…!”
In uncertain situations where it feels like there's no way forward, unexpected opportunities can arise. I've luckily experienced these situations, and it's truly something to be grateful for.
There's a phrase on the wall of the gym I go to these days.
Doesn't seem like it would happen, does it? Good things!
They happen.
We should believe it.
‘Is that even possible? Isn't that impossible?’
I hope we can believe that such things will happen to us. I want to believe it. I believe it.
Because it's more enjoyable than not believing. It's happier! It just feels good to believe! It's better than being unhappy and not believing, right?
I think it's okay. Why not? Today is the only moment I have. I can decide how I feel today. I just want to be happy. I want to live joyfully.
I want to embrace unconditional happiness and run around with unrestrained joy. I want to move beyond Nietzsche's camel and lion stages to become a child again.
I think it's okay to live like a child. No one will say anything. Just here, now, today, I'm going to be happy. It's okay, isn't it?
There's no need to worry about a future that may not come or be beaten down by the past. I want to lay down a carpet of happiness in the present and walk gracefully upon it.
You've all started your own challenges, haven't you?
I hope you enjoy them.
I hope you continue on.
Even if you feel like you're just struggling through it, keep going.
I guarantee that it will become a routine, then a habit, and eventually, a source of joy.
I'll be cheering you on.
Let's do it together. We can!
