“Life off Earth is in two important respects not at all unworldly: You can choose to focus on the surprises and pleasures, or the frustrations. And you can choose to appreciate the smallest scraps of experience, the everyday moments, or to value only the grandest, most stirring ones. Ultimately, the real question is whether you want to be happy.”
From An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth by Chris Hadfield, first Canadian to walk in space, born on this day in 1959
