Happiness is a tapestry we craft from the myriad threads life provides – some coarse, some silky. Yet, it’s our choice how we intertwine them. Your life’s tapestry is your sanctuary; make it as resplendent as possible. Once woven, the threads remain fixed; time won’t reverse, so craft each moment, each connection, with care. Every instant is a potential stitch, every action a defining pattern. Relish each strand and moment, for time is relentless. Be the mastermind of your own intricate pattern. Avoid leaving gaps, lest your tapestry unravels. While it’s okay to seek guidance, remember, the significance lies not in the process, but in the magnificent final piece you create.
