found the drill one totally hilarious..reminded me of my ex.
actually the woman in the first advert reminded me of him...didnt she have a very masculine shape..my 12 year old walked past as i was watching it and says..is that a man dressed up as a woman..
friends are people who enhance your happiness..whether it be a short exchange...a comforter from afar or someone u seen everday since u were born...its ur definition and actually links to the first one..living under everyones else expectations.
few things i learned and so glad i did since turning 30....
things that go wrong..the daily lessons..getting hyped about them and feeling like the world is out to get u...is a adolescent way of dealing with things..
unless u can see the tiny lessons and are able to pull it apart like a cooked chicken of emotional training it is, devour it with enjoyment..u will always be 14.
people love you...as they can only love..and if they give u all THEIR love and not what u expect from ur version of love..then what more can u ask for...u are getting their all.
and happiness is a state of mind..not finance or relationship...take finance n relationship away..happiness will remain if the foundation is within urself.
and to my point...
i look forward to learning more..every day..laughing smiling crying loving losing and finding..bring it on!
Bronnie Ware is an Australian nurse who spent several years working in palliative care, caring for patients in the last 12 weeks of their lives.
She recorded their dying epiphanies in a blog called Inspiration and Chai, which gathered so much attention that she put her observations into a book called The Top Five Regrets of the Dying.
Here are the top five regrets of the dying, as witnessed by Ware:
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
"This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made. Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it."
2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.
"This came from every male patient that I nursed. They missed their children's youth and their partner's companionship. Women also spoke of this regret, but as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence."
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.
"Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result."
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
"Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved. Everyone misses their friends when they are dying."
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
"This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called 'comfort' of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content, when deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again."
What's your greatest regret so far, and what will you set out to achieve or change before you die?
