Even though I have come a really long way, and for those of you who know me, bless your heart, you know it's true! Just yesterday I was complaining to myself about some of the people who live on my street. I was thinking, "Well, if they'd just move" or "If they would just clean up their yard" or "If they wouldn't park on the sidewalk or grass or whatever"...my life would be so much better!
So here it is again from Abraham:
Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you're off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they're doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel -- and then, you'll love them all. Because the only reason you don't love them, is because you're using them as your excuse to not feel good.
--- Abraham
So you know what I did? I turned to my garden, or lack of, and potted some beautiful plants. And I felt better. And then I went in my back yard and noticed the seeds I had planted several years ago had turned into a huge climbing bush of gorgeous yellow happiness. And life was better.
