Just a Story on Choices.....
Read this LET IT REALLY SINK IN.......THEN CHOOSE .John is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, 'If I were any better, I would be twins!'
He was a natural motivator.
If an employee was having a bad day, John was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up and asked him, 'I don't get it!'
'You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?'
He replied, 'Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or...you can choose to be in a bad mood I choose to be in a good mood.'
Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or...I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.

Funny, someone today commented on one of my articles, saying there were not many words with the picture. I said "a picture is worth a thousand words, which is a LOT more than most articles" :)

When I shared it on FB, the first picture that showed was of the guy from UK who first commented here. Fortunately, the 2nd picture was yours, Corey, so I chose that. LOL
Sean knows me enough to not be offended. :)

Thanks to all for taking the time to read this post and for commenting as well.
@Sean - yes indeed you are welcome to RSS to Koo iii
@Don - I'm glad you were inspired to "take the high road" - so to speak - with your situation. We do always have a choice and your character shows through in the choice you made in your situation. I believe as you - things happen for a reason, I'm glad this post was "your" reason.....

Hi Corey, I am inspired!!! "It's your choice how you live your life.' I recently had a situation where I was made to feel like a victim. It was a total injustice and the first thing that ran through my mind was to get even. I think this article was put in my path for a reason because now I choose to learn from the experience.
I will also remember this if someone I may know ends up inside their head because something was done to them, I will certainly direct them to this post.
Thanks for
