Today, Now, Me.....

Why do people complain? Some people complain more than others....Why?? These questions go through my head often! We have so much to be happy for, we are so blessed! Families - yes, food - yes, bedding and housing - yes, clothes - yes, pets who love us - yes.....And yet we still complain! People out there are dying.... and we still complain about the small things! Yes i know we don't have to feel guilty the whole time but some people complain about the petty things.

My life has taken a happy turn - i've got a new outlook on life, we don't have forever to live on earth and time is running out - so why waste time being sad and down, be happy and make each day worth it, live it to the full and get something out of it! Each day provides opportunities to learn, to love, to laugh and yes even to make mistakes. You can't say i have a dream and do nothing towards it, each day you have to work towards that dream.

No one said life was gonna be easy, but we make it complicated. I am happy where i am, i love children and i am working as a Teacher's Assistant (I love my job) i have a family who loves me.....so what more could i want?!
I've decided that each day we have a choice whether we want it to be a good day or a bad day...we have a choice to go out there and make it a good day no matter what, people push us down, stand up and learn something from it! I've had times at work where i wish i could leave because of issues, but i've learnt you can't run away from problems, you have to face them!

I know it may all sound so easy and there are times that are tough but we gotta keep our heads up no matter what.
I want to smile and laugh and be happy, and know that if i die today - i died a happy person and i tried my best at life!

We can't sit back and relax, we got to work for what we want! Nothing comes for free.

Never have regrets because from every bad choice or mistake you learn something!

So take that step of faith and take life by the horns.....
