Dream Life

                                                The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearances, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company- a church- home. The  remarkable thing is we have choice  every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for the  day. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is  attitude- I am convinced that life is  10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you-we are in charge of our attitudes.

                                          You're going to realize it one day- that happiness was never about  your job, or your degree, or being in  a relationship. Happiness was never  about following in the footsteps of all of those who came before you, it was never about being like the others. One day, you're going to see it- that happiness was always about the discovery, the hope, the listening to your heart and following it wherever it chose to go. Happiness was always  about being kinder to yourself, it was always about embracing the person you were becoming . One day, you will understand. That happiness was always  about learning how to live with yourself, that happiness was never in the hands of other people. It was always about you. It was  always about you.
