If you can't get what you love. You learn to love the things you've got :)

Well if you can't get what you love
You learn to love the things you've got
 
If you can't be what you want
You learn to be the things you're not
 
If you can't get what you need
You learn to need the things that stop you dreaming
 
All the things that stop you dreaming
~ Mike Rosenberg

On a bus ride to class this morning, i am among many others commuters heading to start our day. 
Everyone seems to be tired & sleepy. Everybody got up the bus, and found a seat and settle in quietly.
I plugged on the ear piece and got into my playlist on Spotify.
ah~ that was all i need in any morning before class.  
This music came along. I thought a little.

Many things we wish it happen, but it didn't.
Many things we hope it don't happen, but it did.
So, what do we do?

I always believe the idea of being appreciative of what we have & what we don't. 
We can never almost possess anything, not even ourselves.
Always at one point, if we didn't learn how to set things free; what need to go will just dissolves in front of us. Or we will have to learn it through pain. 
Love what you do and do what you love.  
In life, there are many things we may not totally love doing.
 
In the bus i was on this morning, i counted my blessing for looking forward to class and the students. I'm even a little excited every time thinking about the things i planned to work with them on the mat.

To many others may be just another day getting to work, going through the routine, having to feed families and raise kids.
For this, i totally respect them for what they are getting up early for---  for putting their comfort aside and provide for their loved ones.

Realistically, there are way too many things in life we have no control over. 
But we can always choose how we feel, our attitude and how we choose to manage.

Yeah, that much we can do. That can already make a huge difference to our own little world!

We can be happy seeing the sun rise or upset when the sun sets. 
Don't forget, in the dark sky, there are still the moon and twinkling stars!

Want to check out this song that i listen this morning? 

Enjoy!
