Life is Too Short to Wake Up With Regrets

Love the people who treat you right.
Forget about the ones who don’t.
Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said life would be easy.
They just promised it would be worth it.
A lot of you have probably heard, seen, or read this quote before. I believe it does a great job summing up what life should be about. Make your life be worth living for and live it to the fullest. Value the people in your life who matter, have influenced, and made you, you. Not everyone is granted a second chance at something. One thing is for certain that we don’t get a second chance at life. Be fortunate if you are presented a second chance with anything and don’t take it for granted. I know that I’ve taken many things for granted and I don’t like to admit it, but I also regret a few things in my life. Rather than sitting around and thinking about past decisions and how things turned out take a stand and make the change in your life that you want and deserve.
I love the last two lines, “Nobody said life would be easy…They just promised it would be worth it.” Hopefully my life will be meaningful, as well as yours. I know that life is priceless and for the most part I’ve enjoyed it. I just want to be free to do as I please and find the happiness that I’ve been seeking.
And I’ll leave you with one more thought. You can find unexpected beauty in the most simplest and inconsequential things. Something that is absolutely ordinary can be stunningly beautiful.

I love this quotation – I’m wondering if anyone could tell me who it is by?
Sorry bella, I don’t know who the quote is by. I’ll keep looking though!
life is too short to regret over things. I did not read this quote but said by a young girl , if any body disagree with me let me know
I read this quote for the first time when I saw it written in my teacher’s facebook page, and since then I always think of it and took it as my lifestyle. It has given me the strenght I need to go on through tough times. I totally agree with you Gregg, the last part is the best and most motivating of all. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Argentina.
Yes indeed, I searched for this quote in Google. I knew it already, but I got tears in my eyes reading your comment. Thanks for sharing!!!
The only thing I could find about the author of this quote is that, Bob Marley said it. Only a couple of sites said it was his quote, but I could not find any validation.
positively uplifting! Thank you for posting.
it seems i posted this quote on facebook for my friends one day. it resonated with me and i wanted to share it. over the last 24 hours, my life seemingly fell to pieces and i need to find a way to dust myself off and start again. and just moments ago, a friend from another life time posted the quote back to me. i had forgotten the quote and that i’d even shared it. timing…
Leave your response!
Greetings
