It’s All Life

Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. – Alfred D. Souza

The Obstacles are Life.

The Triumphs are Life.

The Joys are Life.

The Highs are Life.

The Lows are Life.

The Big Moments are Life.

The Small Moments are Life.

It’s all Life, and it’s being happening with or without you.
