The Best Things To Love About Life

Hello readers! C: 

It's a wonderful day, and I'm looking for a bit of positivity to even brighten the day!
So here's a list about the best things in life!

1- Waking up each day & being able to breathe.

Being able to live and wake up on another morning itself, is a huge blessing not many of us are aware of. But you know what they say, you only know the value of something when you lose it.

2- Family.

You may think you don't love them, but a family is one of the greatest gifts a person can have.

3- The nature around you.

Whether you're building a snowman, or a sandcastle, if you're hiking a mountain or if you're just lying down on the smooth grass, nature is also one of the best things to love about life.They make the fun moments even fun, and the dull moments, even bright.

4- Love.

Whether its a father's or a mother's love, or even a sister's or a brother's love, a lover's or a friend's love, its possibly number 1 on the list of greatest things ever. 

5- Pets.

These fluffy, furry  little animals that always manage to cheer you up and make you feel extremely blessed to have them, are the cutest things on earth.
   

6- Laughter.

Laughing till your stomach hurts with your bestfriends is one of the biggest joys ever. I mean seriously, what's better than sincere laughter? You've heard it millions of times, and now you'll hear it again; Laughter is the best medicine! :D

7- Friendship.

You know it. As I said in my previous post, friendship is a treasure, and life is just so dull and lonely without friends. Enough said.

8- Food.

Yes, food. Icecream, pizza, burgers or any of your favourite foods always make your day no matter what! You cant deny it!

9- Hugs.

The best thing in the world, and the best way to greet someone. The best things in life are free, yes, hugs ofcourse!

10- Yourself.

Well, you gotta love yourself, your talents and your appearance. Everything in you; talents, ideas and you yourself is a free gift that you should love, cherish, and appreciate for the rest of your life. 'You are a gift - an individual like no other. You are the only person with your combination of treasures.'




Life is just so great and so full of wonderful things.

Remember;
Smile always;
Laugh often;
Dream big;
Live well;
Love all;
Never hate;
and never forget to appreciate everything. 


Till next time, readers;

Friendship.

Well, since it's World Friendship Day, I'll post a little article about friends. :) 

"An Acquaintance merely enjoys your company, a fair weather companion flatters when all is well, a true friend has your best interests at heart and the pluck to tell you what you need to hear." - E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly.
Let's be very honest, we are surrounded with tons of people; or lets say.. 'friends' and there are so many different types of friends. The fake ones, the acquaintances, the school friends, the two-faced friends, the 'i-just-want-your-success' friends, friends with benefits and of course, very rarely, the true friends.

Friends that just claim to be your 'friends' are not really friends, and its time we realise this. They are more like shadows; appear when there is light and success, but when it dims, they just simply disappear, and you never know where on earth they've just gone, and to be very frank, these kinds of friends are worse than enemies/people that openly express their dislike towards you. Let me tell you why.
Firstly, they're extremely two faced and its such a dilemma trying to think of which face to slap first.
Second, they give you a lot of false hope, that you actually have a friend;
And thirdly, when they abandon you, they leave you broken hearted & betrayed, and trust me, you don't want to go through that!
So in all ways, fake friends are the worst type of people, and its better you get them sorted out at the beginning. Hard to sort the sheep from the goats when they're all wearing horns, but I guess they'll show their true colours when it's time.

 However, true friends are simply treasures. They are always there every step of the road, always there to cheer you up or comfort you, always counted on, always there to make you feel special, and you're the luckiest person to have one of these friends, because they're the people that will really matter, the people you will see as bridesmaids and best men years from now, and these are the people that deserve to be celebrated today. These are the people to be appreciated atleast once a year, and thats why we have a friendship day.

Life without friends, is just like a party without music and snacks and a meeting without people.
So take a few minutes today and thank someone for being the diamond of your life and for being one of those rare friends that you should stick to, no matter what.

Happy Friendship Day, Readers.
Till Next Time;
