Have you lived?

'There is a practice which I follow every night before going to sleep. It is very simple, but it has helped me immensely, and it can help anyone who uses it. It involves only three questions:
.
Have I lived? Have I loved? Have I laughed?
.

Have I lived? Have I made the best use of the time provided me during that day to grow, to learn, to develop?
.
Have I loved? Have I reached out to everyone I met and made them aware of the love in my heart and eased their burdens of self-mistrust and self-doubt?
.
.
Have I laughed? Have I seen the humorous side of even the most painful incident?
.
