We received this thought from a friend and thought I'll share it with
others.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have
a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't  old
enough and we'll be more content when they are.  After that,we're
frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with.  We will certainly  be
happy when they are out of that stage.  We tell ourselves that our
life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when
we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire.
The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now.  If not
now,  when?  Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best
to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. One of my
favorite quotes comes from Alfred D. Souza.  He said, "For a long time it
had  seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life.  But there
was
always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first,
some finished business, time still to be served, or a debt to be paid.
Then life would begin.  At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were
my life".  This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to
happiness. Happiness is the way.  So, treasure every moment that you have
and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special
enough to spend your time...and remember that time waits for
no one.

So, stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back tschool,
until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have
kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work,  until you
retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday
night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your
car
or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until
winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until
your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up,
until you die, until you are born again to decide that there is no better
time than right now to be happy.

Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

Thought for the day:

Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt,  And
dance like no one's watching.
