Reflections

Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

~George Bernard Shaw

Look within!... The secret is inside you.
 ~Hui-Neng

Having had some time to think about things and life in general,
I've decided on a course of action for the coming year.  
It comes down to the fact that no one has control over our lives or emotions other than ourselves.  
No one can make someone happy, no one can make someone unhappy.  
It is our reaction to the stimulus that creates the mood. 
So don't react in a negative way.  
Change your response.  

I used to think of this as a lonely photo.
If I was in one chair, who would be in the other?
Now I wonder why I need someone in the other chair at all because it would be a blessing to sit and feel the sun warming my skin and listen to the waves roll in and 
just be.
And if I choose to have someone be there, then I need to put someone there.
Stop fearing rejection. 
Stop with the negative self image.
I have decided, this is the year I turn things around.
This is the year I manage happy.

  1. Yes you first must be happy with yourself, by yourself and in yourself. Everything else will fall into place then.
