Or you can choose to pick yourself up and move yourself forward. You can refuse to allow yourself to be a victim. Others may hurt you. Circumstances may work against you. Tragedy may come your way. Yet none of this means you must consent to be a victim.
Choose to make triumph rise from tragedy. Choose to make every defeat a temporary one on the way to ultimate victory. Rather than being skilled at complaining and collecting excuses, become skilled at adapting and turning even the most difficult circumstances in your favor. Every opportunity to be a victim is also an opportunity to move ahead. The path you choose is up to you.
Life is wonderful, abundant, filled with beauty and joy. There is simply no way to deny that. Certainly there is tragedy in this world. And yet in order to even grasp the concept of tragedy, you must start with the assumption that life is very much worth living.
Even the disappointments point out the potential goodness of life. Because every disappointment is the result of knowing that life can indeed be better, that the positive possibilities are very much there.
It is an undeniable reality that this day has magnificent possibilities. When you can see those possibilities, and focus upon them, and follow where they lead, you’ll bring them to life.
Yes, things could be better than they are at the moment. And you are blessed with the ability to make them better. This very day is the day to do it.
