31 Truths To Live Your Life By

1. Life is a perspective. So if you don’t like your life, change the pair of glasses that you’re seeing it all through.

2. Cherish the “now”. Look to the future, but know that the present moment is all that we truly experience.

3. Happiness is not constant feeling. But it is however, a constant state of well-being.
