The Power of One

If we are in control of our thoughts, we are in control of our lives. Once, a friend of mine said that one tree can start a forest, as much as one smile can begin a friendship. She also said that one stroke is enough to lift a soul. One tap on a shoulder can change the direction of that day.

Sometimes, we need to hear the right word so that we frame a goal in our minds, giving purpose to our existence. We have to remember that one candle can wipe out darkness, as much as one laugh can conquer gloom, and one hope can raise our spirits.

Life goes on regardless of my choice. We can choose to move on and take a chance on the unknown, or we can decide to stay behind, locked in the past and thinking of what it could have been.

One choice can change our lives.

Traducere

Daca suntem in controlul gandurilor noastre, suntem in controlul vietilor noastre. Odata, o prietena a spus ca un copac poate sa inceapa o padure, la fel de mult cum un zambet poate sa inceapa o prietenie. A mai spus ca o mangaiere este suficienta sa-ti inalte sufletul. O bataie pe umar poate sa schimbe directia acelei zile.

Uneori, avem nevoie sa auzim cuvantul potrivit ca sa formam un gol in mintile noastre, sa dam un scop existentei noastre. Trebuie sa ne amintim ca o singura lumanare poate alunga intunericul, la fel de mult cum un raset poate cuceri tristetea si cum o speranta poate sa ne ridice spiritele.

Viata continua in ciuda alegerii pe care am facut-o. Putem sa alegem sa mergem mai departe si sa ne asumam riscul in necunoscut, sau putem decide sa ramanem incuiati in trecut, gandindu-ne la ceea ce ar fi putut sa fie.
