Friday Frills

Although I may not be able to prevent
 the worst from happening,


I am responsible for my attitude toward the 
inevitable misfortunes that darken life. 


Bad things do happen;
 how I respond to them defines my character 
and the quality of my life.


I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, 
immobilized by the gravity of my loss, 
or I can choose to rise from the pain, 
and treasure the most precious gift I have - life itself.

We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. 

We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have,

and that is our attitude. Life is 10% of what happens to us and 90% of how we react to it. 

We are in charge of our own Attitudes.
