Someone once said – “There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, have compassion for the ones who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living.”
Everyone falls, fails, gets hurt, makes mistakes, and is treated badly. No one goes through life unscathed, so why should you? Why should I? One of the greatest gifts to yourself to to get over the notion that life SHOULD be easy (who said so?) and find those places where you are fed, honored, and safe. Then express gratitude every day for what you have (my mantra is “if you can still feed yourself and you’re not in jail, then you have two big things to be grateful for”). Start now. Life’s too short to live it half way, and a lousy attitude only makes your life miserable…Too bad, when there are choices to live differently.
