Doodle Card #277 – Watch Your Life Story

 

Watch your life story.

If your whole past were a movie, would you like to watch it from beginning to end?

I definitely don’t want to. Because it was full of self-deception, self-destructive thoughts and behavior, and distrust of humanity.

But because of that, I can say that my whole past was an invaluable source of life lessons. As Napoleon Hill said, “Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.” I wouldn’t say that I come to know that this is a true statement; thinking this way is the only way to make my whole past something meaningful.

And I finally find the way to turn around my dark history into a positive life lesson — through this daily doodling. I’ve decided to do whatever I can do to make this world a better place for all of us. And that will be the latter part of my life story. I hope that — maybe decades later — my whole life story would be worth watching from beginning to end.
