Philosophy in life and why I like this quotation. It reminds me about life and the
lesson of being grateful for all the blessings that come
our way.
“Life is too short to wake up in the morning with
regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget
about the ones who don't and believe that everything
happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it
changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it'd be easy,
they just promised it would be worth it”
