Proud

[Rhonda78]

So I have been really proud of myself lately..........

I am usually a very stressed out person, but with God's help I have been more calm lately. I have not been yelling at my kids as much. I have been letting my husband play the lead role in the house instead me trying to have the control over everything. I try not to let the little things bug me and I when I do, ecpecially with my husband, I appolagize ( which is really rear for me to do ). If I mess up I try to remember that I am not perfect and I will always make mistakes.

Life has been pretty good lately because of my attitude. And because of my positive attitude everyone else is happier and doing better. You know what they say, the only person you can change is yourself. This is very true because once you start to change believe it not everyone else does too.

You should be proud Rhonda! Congrats! I think this is a hard lesson for many of us to learn (including myself). I just keep hearing that saying in my head "Be the change you want to see in the world". When you start making changes on yourself, it naturally helps others become better also. I am in this boat with you. 

Best of luck. Nicole

Sep. 9, 2007 at 5:34 PM You've just quoted something that I tend to say OFTEN.  Yes, it's true that the only person we can change is ourselves.  In fact, we need GOD to do that, because we often struggle with getting it right.  I've also learned that by having a more positive attitude and working on myself, everyone and everything else arounds me changes for the better.  Amen!  Thanks for this post!

Rhonda,

This is so true. I have been in the same frame of mind lately. I have been trying to stay calm and happy. You know, morePOSITIVE. Our moods are CONTAGIOUS to others, our most important loved ones. It makes us all so much happier to be postiveAMAP. It is very hard for me to be this way at times. I have to remind myself that this is true and continue to stay calm and postive. I think this is going to be a vry good group for me. Thanks for inviting me. It is good to talk with people who can relate.
