Another day

Today was a great day! I went out the door with a positive attitude, walked into work with a positive attitude, and walked out at the end of the day with a positive attitude. I spoke with someone today and they reminded me of the Serenity Prayer and she told me of how she has changed her life recently. She gave me ideas on how to deal with stress and emotions. How to deal with people, and how to deal with myself and I really love her for sharing! I think I have a plan now and I am back to the me you know and love.

The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

--Reinhold Niebuhr

When I feel stressed or emotional I will look at the problem, is it within my control to change...then I will change it, if it is not with in my control to change, I will walk away and keep on smiling. I will leave each day one at a time, each moment at a time, and not get upset when life gets in the way. I will also accept that life is not always easy and sometimes I need to suck it up, shut up, and keep on smiling! Most of all, I will not dwell on things that have already happened, life is too short to sweat the small things:)

So I am going to write a book...where to start? Maybe start small with some short stories. or a children's book...my niece is a wonderful illustrator and I want her to illustrate a book...so here I go to write my first one...I am thinking a dragonfly and a frog! My two favorite things in the world.

I will keep you updated:)

Every one of you never cease to amaze me!
