Steps To Happiness ~
Everybody Knows:
You can't be all things to all people.
You can't do all things at once.
You can't do all things equally well.
You can't do all things better than everyone else.
So:
You have to find out who you are, and be that.
You have to decide what comes first, and do that.
You have to discover your strengths, and use them.
You have to learn not to compete with others,
Because no one else is in the contest of *being you*.
Then:
You will have learned to accept your own uniqueness.
You will have learned to set priorities and make decisions.
You will have learned to live with your limitations.
You will have learned to give yourself the respect that is due.
And you'll be a most vital mortal.
Dare To Believe:
That you are a wonderful, unique person.
That you are a once-in-all-history event.
That it's more than a right, it's your duty, to be who you are.
That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.
And you'll be able to stay one up on what used to get you down.
just loved it and wanted to keep it safe and also to share it here..
am thinking, feeling and should be writing
but too busy with the living bit at the moment - haven't forgotten any of you though...
love to all

Violetsky :) Thank you... yes, living takes up so much time, especially with teenagers around - but all is good :)I think there needs to be some space inbetween though aswell, and that is where I miss my blog...and why I still come back to it now and again, good to reconnect, x
