Every human being has the right to choose how they feel; you can choose happiness or sadness.

You may be depressed or heartbroken, over something that may have happened to you or something you did a long time ago, maybe even years ago, to yourself or to others. But you need not stay in that depressed state any longer.

There is no need to carry that pain any longer inside of your heart, day after day, year after year. You must not let it grow continuously because soon enough, that one issue you are sad or depressed about will turn into your normal way of thinking. Negative thinking has a domino effect!

When one door closes in life, another one will open, but if you do not let go of the pains of yesterday, the joys of today and tomorrow will never, ever be discovered. They will be overshadowed by your misery. You must let go of the past to be happy. There is no ifs, ands, or buts!!!!!!!

Quit living negatively in the past, and focus on what you can do about today and in the future. You see, what happened in the past, you have no control of, today. You cannot do a thing about it, so why live there?

Start living and loving the things you can control such as this beautiful day or maybe call a friend that you had a relationship with that turned bad and re-kindle it. Go out and create joyous experiences and turn happiness into a constant way of thinking.

Enough is enough… Do you not agree??

Do not let the torments and regrets of yesterday live in you deep enough, to cover your progression and happiness for today.

LIFE STATEMENT

I will go through this life only once,
and I shall have but one chance to live;
Not all people will like me,
others may even despise me,
as I may not be easily understood;
Yet I will take this chance to live,
and I will reach out in ways I know;
I will love those whom I can,
and I will strive to understand them more;
Not all days will bring me sunshine,
so I will rejoice also for the rain;
Not every endeavor will be a success,
but I will savor the victories I achieve;
Not all dreams I dream will be mine,
but in time new dreams will fill my heart,
and as from a star those hopes will propel me forward
doing everything the best way I know I can;
No fear shall trample me whatsoever,
though some tasks seem to outweigh my strength;
I will only do what I have to do,
and God will take care of the rest!
