-James Allen (1855-1942)
The top one caught my attention. Did you “get dealt a bad hand” in life? When people don’t take responsibility for their lives they “hand the reins” over to someone or something else – giving up the naturally good feeling of being in control… sure they’re easy to make fun of, granted such external insults determine their internal state of happyness, but the complaining or their nonacceptance of “what is” becomes common ground. The first point seriously forced me to grow within in order to produce the circumstances I wanted – love those fundamental truths.
Love the quotes, especially the first one…
Left a comment in the very top post, but not sure if it’s updating the “comments” count as it still says “0 comments”.
