I spotted this in a shop, and thought it was such a great quote.

we spend a lot of time stressing, and not enough creating happiness.

This becomes more and more important as we grow older. The saying goes ‘we are only as young as we feel’?

Laugh once each day would be a great New Years resolution, and it was in fact mine a few years back.

I could have stayed in mourning when I lost my mother last year. I know that mum wouldn’t have wanted that, and I also knew that there was still a life out there to live, which had just become all the more vital. You simply have no idea when your time is up, it could be tomorrow, or many decades from now.

Life is for living. Enjoy every moment, they are all absolutely vital.
