"Things turn out best for people who make the best of the way things turn out."
John Wooden
Making the best of a bad situation is empowering. Wasted tears or impotent rages are as useless as trying to breathe underwater. There are very few disadvantages that cannot be turned around, in one way or another, but the first step has to happen internally. As long as attitude is flooding the landscape with negatives, the positives will remain hidden.
Each day has the same promise, not for ease of travel, but for the chance to learn from the journey. To have the strength to see past the ugliness, to the beauty in every moment, demands that you pick and choose the things that get under your skin. Every morning is a gift, which can be opened slowly and savored or ripped into with greed, certain that you deserve a flawless treasure.
Bad things happen to all, none of us are immune to the cost of living. What happens to us is often out of our control, but the price we pay differs by the amount we offer. Do your very best to pay only what is necessary then travel on with true wisdom, well earned and deserved.
