Re: OMG! HELP. serious

I think that you must teach yourself to be happy in your own skin... people who are uncomfortable with themselves tend to get bored. I can sit for hours and look at the trees, mountains or sun, a babbling brook (even a garbage dump if that is my lot today) and never find it boring. In fact, it is my church, where my prayers have strength.

See the world through the eyes of a child full of wonder and new adventures.

Wake up and the very FIRST THING you do, the very FIRST THOUGHT, say to yourself "THIS IS GOING TO BE THE BEST DAY EVER!"

Many people ask me "how are you" throughout the day... more of a habit than a real desire to know how I feel. When I answer, "this is the best day ever!" I immediately have changed that person's day, and mine, for the better, and at times, make a new friend in the action.

Say it over and over every moment of every day, even when something happens that is not so great, say to yourself, "THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!" Any little insignificant opportunities (or problems if you prefer) you run into will shrivel up and die.

Live in the present dude! It is a gift to you from the creator. The past is gone, the future is yet to be, ACCEPT THE GIFT and be grateful!
