The Fault In Our Stars is a story of 2 teenagers with terminal cancer. They go through ups and downs – periods of time they feel decent, and then they don’t.
“There’s no way of knowing your last good day is your last good day – at the time, it’s just another decent day.”
The Fault In Our Stars
I relate so much to the quote above. I want to think that tomorrow I’ll be as ok as I was today, maybe even better. But the truth is that I panic every day because if I don’t finish what I’m doing today, I may not be able to do it tomorrow.
I had a couple of really good months. And I started to take that for granted. I started thinking (like a normal person would) that I had tomorrow too. I woke up sick one morning and months later, I still struggle every day.
How does one find balance on good days when they don’t know if it will be the last one?
We don’t. We just have to choose to live each good day like it could be the last good day.
