want things to change, but low'inbehold, one fine day something happens to upset the applecart.  Our world suddenly gets turned upside down and we're left wondering what to  do.  It can be a car accident, a divorce, an illness, or any number of other things.  I know that I have had many unexpected  things happen in my life.  some good, somenot so good.  The good are always easy to handle, but the bad are not.  Remember this.  We  cannot always control what happens to us, but we can control how we react to a particular situation.  We are the ones  who determine whether to turn it into a positive or a negative.  I have a found that there is  a silver lining in everything that happens. It's up to each one of us to find it.  no one else.  Attitude DOES  matter!!! Here's something that I heard the other night and I think it good to remember.   Pain is only temporary,no matter how long it lasts:)  having a sense of humor helps tremendously Also, remember this, EVERYTHING changes.  Sooner or later.  sometimes sooner; sometimes later
