It isn’t what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it. – Dale Carnegie
How we think and what we think about what happens to us is paramount. Let’s pay more attention to it and stay happier!
Today I AM not taking myself seriously. I AM what I AM and I assess every situation correctly. I know how to be happy.

You will learn that you increase your burdens and decrease the likelihood of success by taking yourself too seriously. – The Urantia Papers
No matter what, we lose out if we’re not enjoying the present moment and the gifts it brings. Laugh, smile, inhale, jump, wink, kiss and make merry, this unique moment that we’re living won’t last!
Today I AM having fun! I AM happy just the way I AM. All is well and there’s nothing to worry about!

None of us is perfect, but we can all be perfect friends and perfect partners by allowing those that we love to be imperfect. – Neale Donald Walsch
There is one way we can be perfect, and this is by allowing others to be imperfect! Imperfect they’ll be, more often than not. Will we allow them that?
Today I AM letting others make mistakes. We’re all good, God’s children in perfection…

I distinctly remember forgetting it.– Clara Barton
Clara was once asked if she remembered the wrong that was done to her in the past. She answered as above. Forgiveness is the key to peace of mind and therefore a healthy body. When we hold resentments against people and events in the past, those ‘holdings’ show up as disease in our minds and bodies.
Today I AM leaving all resentments behind and reminding myself to forgive and forget! It feels like a weight has lifted, I AM healed!!

Happiness is a choice that I can make no matter how grim circumstances might seem. The joy of being alive is always attainable... – Patti Pansa
“… with Stage 4 metastasized breast cancer, Patti didn’t want to wish. She wanted to know how to live life with no regrets. Out of Patti’s vision and sense of urgency, the No Regrets Project was born. Between radiation treatments, spinal surgery and a bucket list trip to Alaska, Patti wrote essays, talked with anyone who would listen, dreamed and created. In the end, she developed five simple, personal practices to help herself live life more fully: be grateful every day, trust – take the risk, courage to be me, choose joy, and love myself & share it. While the phrases may be simple, accomplishing them is not. The development of the No Regrets Project is Patti Pansa’s legacy to all of us.”
Today I AM leaving no regrets on the table! I AM grateful. I AM trusting and take risks. I AM courageously me. I AM choosing joy. I love myself and share this love. I AM living fully!

Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new. – Ursula K. Le Guin
Maintaining relationships built on love is very hard work. If we want our family to stay together then we must work on that relationship diligently and daily. If we want to maintain faith in God and not suffer from fear and isolation, then we must maintain our prayer relationship with God on a daily basis. All love requires work and we must remember that!
Today I AM willing to work to experience love in my relationships. I refuse to take any relationship for granted. I AM ready and loving!
