I know this to be true.

no change of circumstances can repair a defect of character.

happiness is in the heart, not in the circumstances.

peace is within and unaffected by outer circumstances 

happiness is always available 

our focus affects our circumstances 

like the seasons of life circumstances change

life circumstances do not define us. We rise above them.

love is -  people and circumstances change

we are a product of our decisions 

If love is in everything, then love is also in our circumstances 

so…

If we choose life, circumstances can soften us, make us kinder, and open to what frightens us.  

be willing to improve yourself, not anxious to improve your circumstances 

bravely say goodbye to say hello

focus on the lesson, to grow

start from where you are

imagine something better, then create it.

accept now to see what’s possible 

do your best; for now, keep trying

take personal responsibility 

let how you move through your circumstances reveal who you are

constantly commit to love regardless  

find or make the circumstances you want

be aware, be present, knowing life circumstances are outside your control

strive to accept, deal, not complain, give your best, and not take circumstances personally 

let your disposition determine your happiness

become more extraordinary because of and despite life’s circumstances 

forgiveness of circumstances feels sorrow over rage and has nothing left to say
