Live, Enjoy, Love

7 So go ahead. Eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, for God approves of this!
9 Live happily with the woman you love through all the meaningless days of life that God has given you under the sun. The wife God gives you is your reward for all your earthly toil. 
10 Whatever you do, do well. For when you go to the grave, there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom.
- Ecclesiastes 9:7,9-10


Life on earth is but a breath. Whatever has happened we cannot return to it. The days pass by so quickly. So what do we do to live a life of meaning and purpose? We have to know our purpose and work our best with whatever GOD has placed in our hands. There is only one life to live, let us not waste this one life. Find your passion and do well with it. While it is important to do our best with work, it is as equally important to enjoy eating or dining with the ones we love, we have to enjoy the company of our friends and family. GOD delights of wonderful fellowship between the ones He created. It is not a sin to enjoy food most especially when eating with good company.

Most of all, the most important thing we can do on earth is to love. To love and live happily with your spouse, is one of the secrets to a successful life. A happy marriage leads to a happy and warm home. Love the one you are with, love what you have and do not take them for granted. The most deceitful thing we can do to ourselves is when we say we are not happy with what we have because it's not good enough. When we think we can be happier if we had this or that. This is discontent, discontent means it will never be enough. And this leads to an ungrateful and unhappy life. Happiness is a choice, you don't have to be happy later, you can be happy now. So love the one that GOD has given you, your partner your spouse, for this is GOD's gift to marriage and a reward to all our hard working days on earth. Live, Enjoy and Love. It is the best way to live a life without regrets.
