You can't change anyone but yourself.
I've always been a "glass half empty" type of person.
I like to call it being "real", but let's face it. I'm a pessimist. There are times when I will be right. There are also times when I will be wrong. In both of those instances, no matter who or what should change, I can only change myself. Now, before you get all excited, I am not saying that I am willing to give in or back down on important issues.
No.
That will not happen.
I can, however, choose to react differently to situations. I can choose to not let things bother me. I can choose to find good in things that don't seem so good at first. It won't always come easily, but who said life would be easy?
I need to let go of what could have been and what might be. I need to focus on what is. Right now. Not yesterday's dreams or tomorrow's possibilities. Right now. Not only do I need to focus on what is, but I need to do that cheerfully and with a heart of contentment and gratefulness.
I'm ready to focus on filling up that glass I call my life.
Have a blessed day! ~Tammy
