Start Today
"What can you do when you have done nothing but mess up your whole life long?" These were the words I heard when I 36 the TV the other day. They were coming from one of the talk shows 37 are so popular on TV these days. I started to turn the channel but the words I had 38 made me stop for a moment. I 39 the speaker of them. He couldn't have been more than 18 years old, but already he was writing off (認為……已失敗) his life as a useless waste.
I wanted to shout at him:" You're not 40 yet!"
It is 41 sad that so many people cannot get beyond (擺脫) their pasts and live 42 the present. There are so many people like that talk show guest. There are people still in their teen years 43 that their lives are over. There are people in their twenties who already think they have 44 the boat to success and happiness. There are people in their thirties and forties who sit around complaining that life has passed them by. I want to shout to them all:" Wake up! You're still 45 ! What have you done today?" If you want a happy life, you can't dwell on(細想、糾纏于)your past 46 . If you want joy and love in your life, you have to choose them today. God gives us a new chance at life every time we wake up in the morning. It is up to us to seize it.
Today 47 be the beginning of a new life for each of us. We can choose joy right now. We can share love today. We can live in delight starting at this moment. It doesn't matter how hard our past has been. Our present can be full of joy and our future can be full of 48 . It doesn't matter if we are eight 49 eighty--we can still make our lives 50 . Life isn't over until your last heartbeat. Start today, then, to make your heart beat with joy, love, and light.
