Although your life may not be as perfect as you'd like, you can always look around and find people who are worse off than you. I am not asking you to feel glad that they are feeling a bit more miserable or messed up in life....I just want you to realize and be grateful for the problems you don't have. Take some quiet time away from the noise and haste, and count your blessings each day. Take inventory. Start with the people in your life who bring you joy and satisfaction; they are a gift to you.

Be thankful for the choices you've made, both good and bad. Accept your mistakes and go on. You can't change them anyway. Learn from them and apply what you've learned. Don't allow them to have more influence on your life than they deserve. They're just mistakes; they're not your final grade. Besides, making them now may keep you from making bigger mistakes later in life. Use them to help you with other choices so you won't keep doing the same things again.


Go outside and touch the sky. Enjoy the colors of the landscape; romp and play on the grassy ground. Smile at the world, and marvel at the wonders of the universe. Embrace the air; be thankful. Don't allow any negative feelings to creep into your consciousness. Feel the power of your own acceptance. Put a positive spin on every thought you have.

Bask in the glory of awareness. Experience the joy of praise. You're ALIVE! Appreciate the GIFT of your LIFE!
