The text in the title is a quote from the closing sentences of Neil Pasricha‘s TED talk in September 2010. Neil is the author of an award winning blog titled 1000 Awesome Things(wikipedia) (blog). He talks about enjoying the simple things in our short life and how to make the most of them in order to have an AWESOME life.
I found it very touching and inspirational. I believe it worth the 18 minutes.

Reading this reminded me of HolmesPlace slogan: “One life, live it well”
You are spending too much time in Holmes Place 🙂
And the Roman poet Horace said “Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero” – “Seize the Day, putting as little trust as possible in the future”
מצד שני, היום אני גם הכי זקנה ממה שהייתי אי פעם. זה יותר מעודד בעיני
So you mean you cherish the fact you are becoming older? (like Alan Parson’s Project say “ when I am old and wise” ( great instrumental performance)?)
In this case, you will be only happier every day.
I want to be happier every day! This is the whole point of life, isn’t it?!
This is indeed AWESOME!! Thank you Arie 🙂
And to follow the line of slogans and quotes in this post, here is one I like, by Mark Twain, talking about the same thing:
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
And thank you for another quote I need to remember !
