What 24 years on this planet made me realize
Somebody said that you only have one birthday, the rest are just congratulations for survival.
24 years can mean a lot.
It depends. Certain is that many haven’t managed to reach this age and this is the first reason for being grateful. Without gratitude, you can sink very quickly into a black hole of negative thoughts which is not easy to escape. But, once you take responsibility for your words, actions, and implicitly your life, it will be much easier for you to make peace with yourself and those around you. Otherwise, it is very easy to project your frustrations and insecurities on those close to you and to come to the conclusion that no one wants to help you or that no one wants the best for you. And it’s true.
Until you decide to help yourself, you won’t let others help you.
Life is really weird and funny though, but it depends primarily on you whether it will be under the sign of yin (chaos) or yang (order). Inevitably, life will be marked by suffering and sadness, no matter who you are, how much money you have, and other unimportant details. You can be a happy person most of the time, but you will also have to accept the sometimes inexplicable moments of sadness. So, when you feel like your life is a giant washing machine spinning endlessly, stop for a second, and review all the things that you should be grateful for.
Don’t forget: even the longest of days will come to an end.
