It's All About Perspective

It's all about perspective. How we see the world - or rather, how we CHOOSE to see the world.

Awful things happen to great people all the time. Sometimes, life seems (and is) unfair. Things are not always within our control. But the way we look at the future, the decisions we make for today, the way in which we approach challenges and obstacles are MOST DEFINITELY within our control.
 
If we use our experiences (whether good or bad) to learn from each, it might not only help our own lives, but those around us as well. Learning to cope and adapt when life is rough will make us stronger; while setting forth with determination over those things we CAN control will keep us moving in the right direction.
 
Appreciating the little things.
Making the most of what we've got.
Helping others to have a positive outlook too.
That's what it's all about.
Perspective.
