How many us feel we live in a space where we constantly feel that we lack something. Living isn’t the same as feeling alive. Most of us are blessed and should be thankful that we are not living war, famine, drought or epidemics. Does that mean we should become complacent and satisfied with what we already have even if it doesn’t suit us or bring us happiness.   I chose to take a leap and decided to seize the day and the next.
