Answer :

Answer:

The quote reminds me to live my life with gratefulness and contentment.

Explanation:

  • The quote reminds me that I have been given another chance in life and ,therefore, I should not waste it. I should live my life with gratefulness and that I must take careful considerations before making any decisions or actions in life.
  • To follow this advice I must stop being reckless and irresponsible. I should embrace everything that comes along my way and should be thankful for the life I have been given.
