You might not realize this, but you have so much to be thankful for, and although your life may be a struggle at the moment, it will not always be so difficult and challenging! You must believe that better days are on their way, and so you need to think positive thoughts in that direction! These better days may just be around the corner! Everything can not and will not stay as it is right now.
These problems our country is faced with, cannot stay as they are forever. Many Americans are looking for changes, eagerly waiting to hear some good news, looking forward to something that they can get excited about! In fact, part of this change is up to us! We all have to take steps and do things to make our lives more exciting, otherwise life will only feel like a bunch of Tuesdays strung together.
Remember what John Lennon said; “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”
If you are able to walk and talk, and you have a roof over your head, and food to eat, clothes to wear, and you are alive, then you are pretty lucky and should be thankful for those things, because many folks do not have those things. If you once had more money, health, leisure time, and possessions…and now you do not, well…at least be thankful that you still have the oxygen in your lungs and that you are alive.
“It is not the man who has too little who is poor, but the one who craves more.”—Seneca
If you hate your job then maybe it is time to find a better or different one! If you are unhappy with your body, then you should do something about it, whether you need to exercise, lose weight, quit smoking or drinking, change your hair color, or get a new wardrobe! By the way, girls, please stop worrying about “sizes” because they really don’t matter! Whether it is your dress size, bra size, or size of your nose, it just doesn’t matter, men will adore you anyway, so please stop stressing about it!
If you don’t like where you live, then pick up and move to another place! If you don’t have enough money, then get off your butt and do whatever it takes to make more money, if that will help you get what you want and need! Remember that money does not bring happiness and you will still be who you are. Happiness and contentment must come from you! Who you are and what you’re about is not defined by how much money you have. There are people with lots of money and they are miserable! But if you don’t have enough for basic living expenses, then you must do something about it!
“Happiness and contentment are not the destination, they are the path along the way!”—Father Time
Please don’t be sad, miserable, and depressed, and also remember that it is better to be alone than to be in bad company! That goes for partners, friends, and relatives, too! Sometimes you have to “write someone off” if they are a loser, a downer, or an energy vampire, or they are just making your life miserable! It just isn’t worth being miserable because of someone else…not now, not the way the world is today!

Back to you and your life! It really is a good one, you know? You just have to get back on track! There is so much trouble, crime, pain, and sadness out there! I challenge you to stop watching television…it sucks anyway! Think about it!
How many times in your life have you watched a 2 hour movie or sporting event that was a big let down? How many times have you “channel surfed” for an hour and never came across anything worth a damn? How many times did the news actually get you upset or make you feel sad? Television…is crap…and the sooner you stop wasting the precious moments of your life with television, the better off you will be!
“Life is not measured by the number of breaths that you take, it is measured by the moments that take your breath away!”
Go to a library, join a club, go to a church or house of worship, make some new friends, do some volunteer work, visit a museum, read a book, take a long walk in a park or in the woods, go fishing, take a short trip or a long drive, leave your cell phone at home, and escape from your regular routine!
You can go to a bunch of garage sales, play some board games, borrow a telescope and look at the stars, help your kids or grandkids make some Christmas cards, visit a children’s hospital or old folks home, or go park the car near the airport and watch the planes take off and land!
For your own happiness and peace of mind, do something and get out of this rut that you and millions of other people are in! You will feel better, you’ll see! When you feel better, then you can be more productive, and then you can earn more money, then maybe you can please buy something from my website, and please (and more importantly) donate some money to Breast Cancer Research! Thank You!
Many Blessings!
