what will your color be?

your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens...

circumstances and situations do color life but you have been given the mind to choose what the color shall be...
~ john homer miller


let's face it...some people have had a lot harsher lives then others...i have seen some go through some pretty horrific and grueling circumstances...and yet...they are still standing...still pushing forward...although tired...weary...worn...

others...get a tiny glip in their day...and walk around forlorn...like the world is about to end...

in these times...i have often needed to bite my tongue...because seriously...when you look at two completely off the chart examples...it is hard to feel tremendous compassion for someone who...i don't know...maybe got a wrong drink order at the local starbucks...

it is amazing what attitude does...attitude changes everything...and it could be the catalyst for how you view a situation...actually...every situation in your life...

so whatever comes your way...whatever mountain is before you...whatever happened in 2011...or years before that...if you are still holding on...let go...release it...change the attitude...look forward to what is still possible...and possibly what those things taught you...and even strengthened you...

so...what will your color be??
