i love this! thank you martha stewart workers!in my life i am reminded over and over again of what is really important in life. sometimes a trial happens, or sometimes it is through other people's experience, that remind me to live with a renewed purpose, and help me to grow stronger. in this day, in this time in our country it is so so easy to get caught up in watching television for hours, or our children playing video games for hours. or using the internet for hours, (me.) or just being caught up with what is so wrong in our lives that we forget that each of us individually are in control of our lives, and we choose what kind of life we have. meaning no matter what happens to us we each choose to have a happy life, a fulfilling one, with good memories and traditions. we create our life, no matter what our circumstances. it is something i am reminded over and over again.
i was reading my usual morning http://blog.cjanerun.com/ then i went to stephanies blog.http://nieniedialogues.blogspot.com/2007/10/october.html i read about how they celebrate the first of october. by watching the legend of sleepy hollow, and drink homemade apple cider and eat good doughnuts. a tradition i am going to copy. looking back their children have such fond memories of their parents. it is things like this that matter most. no matter what happens in my life. the life i will lead depends on my attitude, not my circumstances. a happy life is really how we choose to live and the memories that we make along the way, no matter what falls in our path.
