Nothing in the world is permanent, and we’re foolish when we ask anything to last, but surely we’re still more foolish not to take delight in it while we have it. If change is of the essence of existence one would have thought it only sensible to make it the premise of our philosophy. W. Somerset Maugham
About This Quote

Life is a series of changes. It is not the same each day. Each day brings its own challenges and opportunities, its own lessons that must be learned, its own successes to be celebrated. Life is not only about making it through the day but living it to the fullest.

Life is about learning to appreciate every moment, every experience for what it is. Nothing in the world is permanent. Everything changes, but one thing will always remain constant: You are always changing.
