With the birth of the Sun, I was reminded of important words to keep in your heart every day, all year round. May this support you as well!

In this world, where each of us feels trapped by circumstances to some extent, it is essential to remember that we have the power to choose how we react to life’s challenges. Yes, difficulties are inevitable, and life is full of uncertainties, but how we decide to navigate through these moments shapes everything.

When dark waters of hardship engulf us, when we feel submerged with no air to breathe, celebrating anything might seem not only impossible but even painfully ironic.

Yet, the Sun rises, despite all our troubles. The light growing stronger each day reminds us of new beginnings and opportunities that are always present, even if we fail to see them.

🎉 There are two wise sayings that help us stay afloat and live fully:

The first: “Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.” These words remind us that while some aspects of life are beyond our control, our attitude toward them is always our choice. Suffering is not a mandatory path but one of the ways we can respond to painful events. You can acknowledge pain, accept it, and learn from the challenges it brings.

The second: “Don’t wait for the storm to pass; learn to dance in the rain.” This is an invitation to live in the here and now, to find beauty and joy even in the toughest times. Dancing in the rain becomes a metaphor for resilience and optimism—that even in the darkest moments, we can discover sparks of light.

Remember, light is first born in our hearts. Each day can be a celebration of life, a quest for and discovery of joy, even when the night feels endless. Embrace life with all its imperfections, find happiness in small things, and dance in the rain—for it is in these moments that the true beauty of existence is revealed!

With love,
Your Elena Shuwany ❤️
