walking down that aisle again, . . .
this year, like so many others before it, has drawn to a close. you may look back on it fondly, or maybe with a little regret, but no matter who you are a rush of emotions are no doubt stirring inside you right now. i hope that it has been a year of hard work and fulfilling your goals, and that you are looking to your future with excitement. you did it! (whatever that hurdle may be for you, i.e. graduation, your sophomore year, or even your 13th year at a job :)) congratulations especially to the graduates and God's blessings on your future, whether that's college, a job, or what have you. know that there is nothing you cannot accomplish with the help of the Lord and the willingness to act according to His plans. go out there and show this world what you can do!!!

"There are no conditions to which a man cannot become accustomed."- Leo Tolstoy

so true, . . . i mean, how many people that you know LOVE to play the victim at one point or another? everyone i bet. it's easy, it makes us feel good (strange when you think about it), and you know what?-- it also gets old real fast. to hear and to say, at some point it takes a toxic effect. i just wanted to remind you (and myself, believe me, i can whine with the best of them :)) to check what we are conversing about (or sulking about :)) and that it is in our power to either change our circumstances or to be content with them (if this helps you, it truly can always be worse, . . . examine all the good things that you may often take for granted in your life-- like food, shelter, health, education, etc :)). that's right, you too can be a happy person! i know it may come as a shock but spread the word-- you don't have to be the victim! :)
later on, . . .
