I have been through some things in my life.
I had some difficulties growing up, I was into drugs and alcohol, and other bad things, I lost my first son to a miscarriage, I have lost loved ones, I have been in bad church sitations, I have had conflicts and tough times in so so so many areas.
And I have made the choice to rise above those situations.
I think everyone has two choices.
Rise above the circumstance, be the bigger person, or break the cycle of family abuse, or whatever it may be, rise above!! -OR- Use whatever circumstance you are in as a cop-out to do nothing. Use it as a way to get attention, and eventually you get so used to always having problems, that you dont want to be normal.
I dont know.......
I have encountered too many people that always seem to have one issue after another. Someone always hurts and wrongs them, they are always the victim, they never do anything wrong and the world owes them
Well I just think we choose how we respond to everything in life. We may not get to choose our circumstances but we do get to choose how we react.
No one can "make us mad". People can be mean to us but we choose to get mad, they dont make us get mad. No one can make us feel or do anything, we have the choice. Even when we feel like there is no way out, or there is no choice, there is!! It is hard, it is never easy but we always have a choice.
Next time you open your mouth to complain, try to remember(like i try to) that there is ALWAYS someone else in this world that is in a far worse situation and I bet you they are not whining and complaining about it.
Be content and be thankful for what you have and where you are at and God will bless You with more and better!
I love all my whiney friends and family but I just wish everyone would think a bit before they peak (myself included for sure)
