Holocaust survivor and author of “The Happiest Man on Earth,” Eddie Jaku says, “Life can be beautiful if you make it beautiful. It is up to you.”

Remember, this isn’t an ordinary person making this statement.

This is someone who has seen and experienced the very worst that humanity has to offer.

And he says, “Life can be beautiful.”

Whether life is going well, or not so well.

Whether you’re experiencing good fortune, or a wretched run of bad luck.

Whether you’re part of a winning team, or surrounded by a bunch of losers.

Whether you look in the mirror and like what you see, or are harsh in your judgement of youself.

Whether you think that your best days are ahead, or believe that it’s only downhill from here.

Life can be beautiful if you make it beautiful.

It is up to you.
