“You look at the situation you find yourself in. And you decide which is your best shot at happiness in it. And you go for that.”
Happy Words
The night before she left for her family vaca in California, my best friend (who died suddenly Tues night on that trip) shared this with me and it is POSITIVE and I am SO GRATEFUL that she shared it with me! So I want YOU to have it!
She told me how when her parents were in their 40’s, her father died suddenly. Her mother went back to teaching… fast forward -> At about age 62, her mother decided to move to California from the east. Everyone told her she was crazy and shouldn’t but she did. Got a teaching job out there. Wound up meeting a lovely man and remarrying 1 – 2 years after she moved there. Eventually, some time in her 60’s, left teaching and went into his antiquing business with him. Had many happy years!
And these are the words and lessons/examples my friend learned from her mother. Through the above and throughout many times in their lives. I typed as she was telling me – she really wanted me to have this – and I really want you to!
“Evaluate your choices and take the shot that looks most promising to you and probably the most rewarding and fun.”
And
“You can change things at *any* time.”
Simple. Profound.
Enjoy:)
