Your Story

I found this from the homepage of Finnish tv-network YLE and I had to post it here 'cause it was so beautiful. It's in finnish, but I translated it to you. Hope you like it.

Listen. Can you hear? You are expected. The whole world and all its' little miracles are waiting for you to find them. There is so much new and strange things ahead that some of us cringe at their smallness and fear. You shouldn't be afraid or a good life will be left without left without living. Keep your eyes open and you're free to see everything. The power of imagination makes us limitless.

Some of us believe they own something. Some think they own a lot. But the world, it belongs to the ones with zest for life. And the future, it belongs to them who believe in the beauty of their dreams. And you can't get enough of beauty. Thus devour life, for fairness is positively way too little when it comes to life.

Walk a new way to work. Smile to people you don’t know. Call an old friend. Sing. Dance. Ask your neighbour how is he doing. Believe in your dreams. Seize the moment and be present where you are. Forgive. Give life a chance. Give a kiss. 

Give reasons for joy – also for them, of whom you think they won’t deserve it. Remember, that the weak ones are cruel ones, and kindness you can expect only of the strong ones. And remember, that you do have the strength. You may not always know, if you are happy or sad, or which of these you even should be.

Stop to think, but stop only to think. You can never tame a horse, if you keep sitting on the fence. Laugh at life. Laugh at setbacks. Laugh at yourself before the others do.

Go on a journey and find a path, so that you can walk on side of it. Find someone, you can hold on to. Find someone, who listens. Someone, who wants to understand and wants to listen. If you seek for only one thing, that will be the only one you will ever find. Find your story. Your story.

Lots of Inspiration to your day!
