It's how I get by

I had a good chat with a friend today. It made me so grateful for my life!! You know I haven't had the easiest life, and seems like when things are going great somethings pops up and TRIES to slaps me down,but honestly isn't that why I am here. To conquer every thing that TRIES to slap me down. I am the only one in control so if I let it slap me down it is my own fault for the miserable out come.
I know I have said this before, but the only way I get by is to face it head on with a positive attitude. I am the only one who can make the out come positive or negative. A lot of the time I don't care what people think about me or say about me, because most the time they don't even know me. If you know me it just depends on the situation.
I have learned that forgiving people is hard!! But in the end if I don't forgive, who does it hurt? Me? or Them? Me, because they don't even think twice about, and I end up dwelling on it and making mine and my family's life miserable.
That is why I have learned to forgive, it isn't worth the way it makes me feel. If I move on I feel great.
How I move on? I lose myself in serving others.That's the only way to forget about it.
That is how I stay happy. Seeing the look on others faces when I have done something nice for them.
I love my life, and my family!! I wouldn't trade any of the things I have had to go through. That is why I am who I am!! PERFECTLY HAPPY, SWEET, CARING, and LOVING!!!
