STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES


LIFE is short, , have you stopped to smell the roses? I have been away for the past few weeks, life has been giving me a beating. But, I did not become discouraged, I became encouraged. The world just keeps on moving and whirling by as fast as it can. Life happens--- we have no control over the circumstances, but we do have control of our attitude. When I feel like I am on a roller coaster I regain my focus by stopping and appreciating what I have in my life. I stop and look at the beauty which surrounds me and do indeed stop and smell the roses. Have you stopped to smell the roses lately? As our world moves in to a new direction with President Elect Barack Obama, how will you appreciate the beauty in our world? What type of roses or beauty will you add? Seriously what will be your contribution to making our country great?
