My philosophy around life is that it’s beautiful. Every every aspect of it, including the bad.
As I as a teen, I used to spend time contemplating what life was…what the purpose of my life was…why am I here…what’s the meaning of life in all of its forms… and how I should interpret what happens to me. Kinda of weird, I know. I loved to think and ponder on life.
Becoming older has helped me have the perspective that we have take what happens in life not personal. Someone once said,”You don’t go through life, you grow through it.” Maybe life is a way to become a better version of ourselves… a way to develop who we are and who we are to become. Between my own twists and turns, I’ve decided to take whatever challenges or whatever comes my way as an opportunity to become a better version of myself. I decided to embrace life for what it is, seeing everything it has given me (the good and the bad) as a beautiful way of growing into myself.
I know that life can be hard, but I believe we have to embrace it in all of its forms. Its beauty, its adventures, its gifts. Everything. That’s my philosophy. Here are some other beautiful philosophies about life that one of my favorite poems has reminded me to embrace in order to change my perspective at different moments. Its notions can be something that you remind yourself of throughout your life as well.
