So What

February 27, 2022

So what. So what if you don’t know what is coming tomorrow. You are on a journey. You did not design your journey, so it is not important what is down the road. You will get there sooner or later. Don’t worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow never comes. Tomorrow becomes today, and today becomes yesterday. The only thing you have control of is your todays. Think of the childhood game of CANDYLAND. Everything is up for grabs. Pick a blue card, and you go to a blue space. Pick a red card and you go to a red space. It is also true that you might pick yellow or green, It is all the luck of the draw. When children are playing the game, they are interested in their journey, twisting and turning through the rainbow of colors. Children are not worried about who is going to win until near the end of the game…then they care. Life in some ways is like CANDYLAND, and in some ways it is different. In life, we are all too on journeys. Always where we are until we are somewhere else. We also do not care so much about the last days of our lives until we are at the end of our lives. Then we seem to care more. The one major thing that is different between playing a game and living your life, is that your journey through the days of your life, are not luck of the draw. There is nothing lucky about where you are, where you are going, or where you will end up. You make choices which might cause detours, but you always will end up at your destination no matter which roads you take. So what if you do not know where your life will take you, live each day as best you can and then go from there. If you are able to do that, you will have no regrets. There are no guarantees in life. So what. It doesn’t matter. Every day is a new opportunity for you to make the choices that will make your life perfect for you. You have choices, your life is not the luck or the draw. Your life is not a game. Live each day in a state of amazement and appreciation. Every day can be and should be a blessing. It is up to you what you do with your twenty-four hours. Make it work. Make it wonderful, so wonderful to be alive. Your choice. Happy. Happy is a choice. Happy is always a choice even if sometimes you are sad. Sadness is temporary. Happiness is ever more.
