Who Can Ruin Your Day?

Who can ruin your day?

The answer is -- no one can.

The only way someone can, is if you allow them to.

If someone says something to you that is hurtful,

let it go in one ear and out the other.

Understand that they are the one having the issues, not you.

You just happen to be there and they're taking it out on you.

Again; one of my favorite sayings.

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."

Understand that there are many miserable people

that cross our paths everyday.

They could be unhappy about their job,

their relationship or just simply the lives they live.

This is called life. We all deal with it,

but in different ways.

These types of people surround us.

They don't like seeing successful or happy people full of joy.

It causes them internal pain and makes them more miserable.

So many will try to rain on your parade or bring you

down to their level of misery.

Whether it be jealousy or whatever on their part, it's real.

The only thing you can do to a miserable person is

not let them change you or the person

you truly are, and smile back.

So many people live with depression.

I'm sure the statistics would be startling.

Depression is simple to deal with if completely understood.

The simple understanding of depression is knowing that time heals all.

If that concept was understood by depressed and miserable

people then they could move on in their lives,

knowing things would get better.

We all know people who are negative and have

nothing nice to say about anybody or anything.

We dislike being around them and we cringe

when we run into them. Why?

Because they bring you down.

You simply don't want to hear it, nor deal with it.

If you're one of those who have been knocked down

by some bad happenings in your life.....

whether that be a bad relationship,

a difficult boss to work for,

or overwhelming financial issues eating away at you......

know that this is just a temporary problem

or situation going on in your life.

It can knock you off your feet but only you can get yourself back up.

The longer you stay down the longer it will take you to get back up.

Your hardships will pass. They always do.

Know we can't stop time. It's always moving.

We can't go back, we can only go forward.

So move forward in your thoughts and in your attitude.

Be happy and know things can and will get better eventually if you allow it.

You control your actions and your life.

How do you want to live it?

Personally, I'm happy and feel good everyday.

No one can ruin my day. Some try but it doesn't work.

I've bounced back from some pretty difficult times throughout my life.

I look back at them and it's just another memory for storage.

Nothing can keep me down. I won't allow it.

I wake up every morning to a new day and the understanding

that today will be better than yesterday. Rich R 7/22/07

So nicely put!

With Love and Light
