No Negativity

My cab was late this morning getting junior to school. Thank goodness he arrived to school on time. But you know it had the trickle effect. I was therefore late getting my bus to the train for work. The train pulled showed it azz by taking its time. But through it all, I was calm. Didn't get upset or anything. Why? Why get all worked up over things that I can't control and putting myself in a rotten mood. I have the power to make my day either great or crappy. I choose-great!

Too much time and energy being spent on being and staying angry or pissed off. Something I don't like happened, accept it and move on. While the people on the train were sucking their teeth and cursing for the train being late, I was relaxing and thinking of all the good things I have going on in my life. I'm in love with a great man, who loves me. I have a son that I love and am so proud of. We have our health; we're in a good place. What does it matter if I get to work late? I don't punch a clock, my boss is so cool, she won't say anything. Why even give negativity a chance to fester?

This is a new year, and a new me. I realize people create their own version of heaven and hell. I'm going to surround myself with positive things/people and concentrate on making my life the best it can be. Life is too short and complicated all on its own without any help from insignificant things that I have no control over and in the big scheme of this; just don't matter.
