Today Choose To Be Happy

Change comes from within. You cannot twist someone’s arm and force them to change even if it is for their benefit.

Change only comes when we feel we have hit rock bottom, a solid wall or dug ourselves in a hole so deep we no longer know how to get out.

Change only comes when one wants to be better not when you want them to.

No one ever said life was fair. No one has even tried to make it seem like it was easy.

Life is the way it is because we cannot control people’s actions.

We are not responsible for what they do; we are only responsible for how we react to that.

People are selfish and will always do what’s good for them; you in turn need to do what’s good for you when dealt a new card

Scolding, shouting, anger and bitterness cannot undo what’s been done; it is merely an outlet for how you feel

Watch your words; once they are spoken they cannot be taken back

Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional

People will hurt you, that’s a given but you have to be the phoenix and rise above it.

You are only responsible for what YOU do.

So in every action, every decision, every emotion, every word you utter you are in control and responsible for that

You are responsible for your own happiness, your own sorrow or misery.

So when it feels like you can’t go on and it feels like the world is against you; look in the mirror, smile and make a decision to be happy.

You know why?

Because no situation lasts forever.

And most importantly you’re worth it.
