WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

Every morning we have a choice in how we are going to spend the day (unless you're in prison, and even then you have a choice about your attitude). We make all kinds of choices: What we wear; where we live; where we work; who we hook up with; and what we do with our time. Our choice. And when it comes to who we are, we have a choice about that, too. No other opinion really matters. That is if you really want to be happy. What if everyone made choices to like themselves, like what they did, and liked everyone they came in contact with? What if we chose not to invent negative scenarios about ourselves, would they exist? Probably not. Perhaps we should choose to be happy with whatever comes our way, focusing on the positive things that happen throughout the day. I believe if we think about good, we will be.

  1. Well said. Amen. Hallelujah.
    One of my favorite quotes is from Maya Angelou, who said, “If you don’t like something,
    change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude.”
