is your own happiness.

the key to your own happiness.

Working at a job you hate is unlikely

I will greet this day with love in my heart.
And how will I do this?
Henceforth will I look on all things with love and be born again.
I will love the sun for it warms my bones;
yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit.
I will love the light for it shows me the way;
yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars.
I will welcome happiness as it enlarges my heart;
yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul.
I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due;
yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.
- Og Mandino

Whether you have experienced a break up
with someone you cared for deeply,

Move on and let go.
Life can be joyful and rewarding again.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
