Thanksgiving Thoughts.

The world is an unfortunate place, but sometimes unfortunate occurrences brings out possibilities. I once heard "Happiness is a choice". And that little saying; Four words, eighteen letters, six syllables, changed my life. The world may be filled with sadness and grief, and yes, it may be pouring out of its pores. But I realized its for the world and everyone in it to see. We can avoid it or make it better. We all have a choice to change and until something unsettles us, we are reluctant to change. Until it turns our world upside down, change is out of the question. But in the end, its necessary.

What brings on this unfortunateness anyways? Good people? Bad people? Neither. There is no such thing. Only what we decide to be and strive to be, and how others view us. But don't let that change you. Don't let others sculpt who you become. Let them provide criticism (that you can either take and use or merely throw away) on the final piece-what you decide to sculpt out of yourself. Its your choice. After all, we only have one life. Live it the way you want to, don't let life live you.
