People are always blaming their circumstances for being what they are. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, make them. ~George Bernard Shaw If only the weather were better, people were friendlier, there were more job opportunities, less traffic, the family lived nearer, the taxes were lower, and the morning sun didn't shine on the wrong side of the house we'd probably be happy right where we are. The problem is there’s too much pressure here, too many frustrations and irritations. The answer seems simple enough - move to another house or city, or even another country. The problem is that when we move, we take ourselves along. Where we are is where we have chosen to be. If we don’t "fix our chooser," we'll choose the same people and predicaments again and again. There is enormous freedom in accepting this truth. When we do, we claim the power to control the quality of our own lives and to create our own destiny. Today, I will investigate how my choices have shaped my life. Today's reading is from the book Days of Healing, Days of Joy: Daily Meditations for Adult Children*
