I Can Change Only Myself...
I can change only myself, but sometimes that is enough. ----- Ruth Humlecker
Happiness is more fleeting for some of us than for others. We may ponder this notion but fail to grasp the reason. However, careful attention to how "the happy ones" go through life will enlighten us. We will note how seldom they complain about others' actions. We will discover their willingness to accept others as they are. We will see that their attention is generally on the positive aspects of people and circumstances rather than on the negative.
We can join the parade of "happy ones" by letting go of our need to change people and situations that disturb us. Even when we are certain other people are wrong, we can let go of controlling them. Doing this means changing our attitudes ; thus changing ourselves. But this is the only one thing in life we are certain do have control over 100% of the time - our attitudes.
I will change my attitude, & thus change myself, if I think something needs changing today!
