A New Chance to Do Something

Every day can be a new life, but only if we stop thinking about the past and worrying about the future. I have come to believe that, what stops us from being happy are those mental projections; sorrow of the past and fear of the future. Humanity has lost it's connection to what there ever is: this moment, NOW. And that is the source of all the sufferings. All our sufferings reside in our minds. Outside our heads, what ever is, just is, plain and pure, without any positive or negative labels.

Everyday is a new chance to smile, dance, sing, and do something new. Birds know this, and I have been a witness to it.

This short video made me smile all the day today:
