Advice Rarely Taken

You have to take things one day at a time.

Whatever happens.

You have to promise to try and make something in life better.

Maybe it is helping someone in need.

Maybe it is cleaning your house.

Maybe it is drinking wine at the banks of a lazy river.

Anything else is a step in the wrong direction and the clock keeps ticking.

If you are going down, this can be the only answer.

The only way to go to rise up from the darkness is to reach for the light.

You have to hold on to the things that lift you up.

Everything else will just drag you down.

To sit around idly is certainly to invite sadness and disappointment.

You need action.

Either you embrace the misery of this world around you,

or you fight.

for a better day,

for a better existence,

for a better world.

It is whatever you want to make of it.

It is your life.
