Your choices are to wallow in self pity, or to move on. If you don't choose the later, you are basically not living anymore. Just eisting.

It’s not about stuff, it’s not about money (trust me) and it’s not about popularity; it’s about knowing who I am and liking that person. It’s about right here right now. It’s good to be alive.<BR/><BR/>That's *exactly* right. It can take a while but the journey is definitely worth taking. Even when things get hard such an attitude - a state of mind - can get you through just about anything. It's because your happiness is not dependent on things external to you. You have learnt that happiness is independent of 'stuff'. Very few people make it that far. It's an impressive achivement.<BR/><BR/>It actually reminds me a bit of the Buddhist way of thinking or Ancient Greek ideas of Virtue.CyberKittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394155516712665665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19984125.post-25495163193005112172007-06-25T06:20:00.000-07:002007-06-25T06:20:00.000-07:00"I am in a good space and others notice - I am att..."I am in a good space and others notice - I am attracting those who place value on the positive."<BR/><BR/>It's natural law, Mike, you attract what you are putting forth. It is indeed a choice (actually a series of choices) - and everyone has the ability to make that happen in their lives, if only they would believe. <BR/><BR/>My glass is always half-full - even when it is really empty. It's the only way to be.kenjuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342414519714356343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19984125.post-18606640575298812092007-06-25T03:47:00.000-07:002007-06-25T03:47:00.000-07:00I feel like I've been given a boost of smiles read...I feel like I've been given a boost of smiles reading this, Mike.

The secret to a life well lived is stunningly simple, yet so completely missed by the majority of people on this planet.<BR/><BR/>I'll mull this one over as I head into week four of my new career experience. So much opportunity lies ahead that it's difficult to know what to bite off first. But bite I shall. With gusto.carmilevyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00360045114379957605noreply@blogger.com
