MAKE IT HAPPEN

Not a bad day. It was a good day with a little bad thrown in the mix. I am worried sick over a stupid, well-intentioned mistake I made. I am always striving to be a good person and a good friend, and when I fail, even in the slightest, I definitely take it very personally- and in turn can be very hard on myself. I just sometimes forget to be easy on myself...we are humans that sometimes make mistakes!

I found many quotes in a favorite book of mine, The Art Of Living, that have calmed my intense spirit down a bit for tonight. Here are just a couple...

- He lives on the principle of "nothing attempted, nothing gained" and is resolved that if he fails, he is going to fail while trying to succeed.

-It is being great now, being forgiving now, being tolerant now, being happy now, being successful now, instead of postponing positive and constructive living to some vague and indefinite future.

Thank goodness I came home to this box of goodies sitting on my door step. There is chocolate somewhere in there, and it is going to help me fall asleep in peace tonight. Bad things may pass through my days, but I have so many good friends that bad days just don't really happen much in my life. Dolly just thought she was sending me a present, and I bet she had no clue how much I needed this today!!!! It is the little things we do for each other that really help make life great.
