If you’re going through a hard time, here are three quotes worth pondering, and one song worth listening to:
“We punish ourselves for not knowing. We always complain about what we could and should have done, and how much of a mistake it was that we did that thing, that unforgivable thing. We beat on ourselves for being so stupid, regretting our choices and lamenting the horrible decisions we make. But here’s the reality — that’s what life is.” ― Will Smith
“And when each day is the same as the next, it’s because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises.” — Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
“The cost of overthinking is the life you could have lived.” — Unknown
The song: "Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of" by U2. A tribute to Michael Hutchence, the lead singer of INXS, this song is meant to let you know that your hard times will pass. This acoustic performance by Bono and The Edge, on David Letterman, is my favorite version.
As the song goes, “It’s just a moment. This time will pass.”
