Affirmation for October 16, 2014: How Things Really Are
Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselvesto recognize how good things really are.- Marianne Williamson
Thought of the day:
We all know that sometimes bad things can happen to good people. And sometimes it can seem like the bad things just keep happening to the best of us. Too often this sort of thing can keep us from noticing all the good things we have in our lives. We end up staring at the one side of the coin for so long that we forget that the other side even exists.
Today, no matter what difficulties you face, take some time to acknowledge and appreciate the good things. Short on time, you say? Challenge that thought. How we spend our time is one of the few things in life that we own, completely. Take charge, and take ample time to bring joy into your life.
Have a good day!

A good encouragement for today. Just when I was having some bad thoughts in mind, but I thought I should focuse more on all the good things instead of letting all the bad memories keeping my mood down. :-) Everything bad said and done to us is a part of the past, it can\'t be changed. But our here and now can be done differently, and we can make life better by choosing better things.
