Inspiration

I've taken inspiration from a friend and decided to start writing a series of blogs.  Just calling it 30 things, which is what the other two i've read call it.  Might post more than one a day, or might just do one a day for 30 days.  Gonna try to keep up with it, since I need to write more.  And at the end of each post, i'm going to write something i'm thankful for.  I've focused too much on the negative for entirely too long.  It's time to focus on the good things in my life.

My new motto is this :  If i can't change it, i can't control it, or i can't fix it, i'm not going to worry about it.

Yeah, i might cry or scream or throw a fit, but once that small moment of emotion about whatever it is is over, i'm going to let it go.  I'm not a very religious person.  Possibly from being forced to believe something for so long as a kid.  I'm a big girl, and i have my own beliefs.  I try to keep them to myself, because every time i've tried to discuss them someone has a fit about it.  But i truly feel this is the right fit for me, and i'm not going to feel bad because it's not the same as my friends or family.  Maybe it's just me, but it's not a matter of WHAT you believe in, but that you BELIEVE.
