Change

*Changing the world is not our job. Changing our mind is. The choice to do so is calling to us every day. Will I listen today?

I hope I will listen today. I wish to make positive changes when it comes to judging others' behavior. If a customer is not in a pleasant mood, I will not automatically assume they are a bad person/annoying etc. Instead I will think  'they may be having a really rough day' and try my best to make them smile! 

opportunities

Giving up negative judgment will change every experience one has. It happens by taking advantage of one opportunity at a time. Today will offer many opportunities.

Today is my 6th day working at Wal-mart as a cashier. I'm home on my lunch break. It's going really good!

Saying nothing

♥ The feedom of saying nothing rather than something hurtful is empowering ♥

~We cannot control others. Our job is to control ourselves. Will I remember this today?

Quote for the day

♪ Joy is never far behind when we are guided by kindness ♪

Letting Go...

Letting others live their own lives takes willingness coupled with practice. One of the gifts of letting go of control over other people's lives is that it gives us the time to attend to our own needs and decisions. In the process, we discover that we have very rich lives that are quite separate from our loved ones', lives that are full of joy and promise. When we focus on the details of other people's lives, we're not able to see the opportunities for new experiences that have been trying to get our attention all along. Lucky for us, they've waited, and they will continue to do so until we are ready to notice them.

This is from the book All We Have Is All We Need (Daily steps toward a peaceful life) by Karen Casey.

Have a great Monday!

Believe

Believe in yourself, what you think,
what you feel,
Believe in the truth, in the good,
the ideal.
Believe that your dreams can someday
come real...
Forever and always believe!
Believe in yourself and in what
you can do.
Believe in the goals that you try
to pursue,
Believe in others who believe
in you too...
Forever and always believe!
