Quote of the Day

"I am determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may find myself. For I have learned that the greater part of our misery or unhappiness is determined not by our circumstance but by our disposition."

Martha Washington
1732-1802, First American First Lady

The above quote has the word "attitude" written all over it. If you are still unclear, lets begin with the definition of the word; it is a person's perspective toward a specified event or occurrence.

When you think about it, everything that happens in your life, in my life is meaningless; it only become meaningful when you attached to it a meaning! Look back at one event that occurred recently; what meaning did you attach to it? is it a positive and constructive meaning or a negative one?

My point is this; you have to become open to the fact that life's event do not have any predisposed meaning except that which you give it...if this is so [it is] it is then possible for one to say that life is whatever one want it to be thus one can choose to be miserable or happy in a given situation.

I know you are burning to question the above and give reasons as to how it is not so...but before you do that, i only request that you wait till you have a situation, regardless of size...see how you reaction subconsciously and then applying the above see how you reaction consciously.
