Making Changes
Can you give more? I don’t mean money, but there are important things in
life that others don’t have that we can give, and it doesn’t cost a lot. What
am I talking about? Almost everyone I talk to, because of the nature of the
work I do, is under stress and getting mad about a variety of issues. I have
been there, done it, and got the tee shirt, but I learned how to handle things
differently and it really isn’t hard, and life is all the better for it.
So many of us are life’s takers . . . only seeing one point of view, one side
of the coin, and determined to fight to the end to be “vindicated”. This can NEVER lead to happy
relationships, or great self esteem, because we really KNOW that somewhere out there there is a
better way of dealing with things to get a better result. So often we don’t understand the route to go
along and as with many new experiences it feels uncomfortable to make changes.
Did we realise how much better the world would be if we all stopped being so inward looking and
started to look outwards, towards others around us? We could all add some sunshine to the world
we are living in if we just decided to make every thought a positive one, and NEVER to think of giving
up on something worthwhile, or thinking that we are through and finished. We all know someone who
impresses us with the way he or she handles situations. I bet if you talked to them in depth you would
find that they have had some major disasters in their lives, but they have coped and are here to tell
the tale . . . if they bother to talk about the bad things in life at all!
Who else is in control of our lives if we aren’t? No partner or friend can make us miserable or
depressed if we don’t want to be. We can all do a little, and by everyone doing a little, that amounts
to a lot. It may not happen worldwide, but it can happen in YOUR world.
I like this story :
A man was walking along the beach throwing back the star fish that had been washed up on the
sand. Someone who was watching him asked why he was doing it, because there were thousands
of them and he could never put them all back in the sea, so what difference could it make? The
man smiled, picked up another one and threw it in, and he said, “It made a difference to that one!”
How true! Every little helps!
Don’t forget that if you try to handle things differently, smile more, forget and forgive more, it may
seem that you are trying to swim upstream at first, and there may be moments when you feel you
may as well go back to the old ways and the comfort zone, but remember, when tomorrow comes,
there’s a chance to start again!!
Till next time!
