Another variant of this is: “these days will someday be the good old days.”

Insightful…

When my Dad got really sick, I craved the lightness of a regular boring day.. a day that’s forgettable.. You’re right, that kind of ordinary day is truly a miracle

I understand that feeling and can relate. I've learned that the best times in my life aren't the ones with the most success, but the least problems :)

So beautiful. So true.

Today is all we have, today is all we get. Yet we worry about tomorrow when in reality we will never be there.

We will always be in 'now'..this day.

It's beautiful if we really make the most of it.

Thank you for this reminder 😊✨

Love it, Eren. I’ve made many posts that ask questions…hoping that they make people think they way you made me think. Thank you for the reminder that these are choices we can make every day, even if we don’t stop to think about them.

Excellent piece!
