My Dad shared this quote with me when I was a teenager when I was probably brooding or in some teenage angst. I’ve always remembered it because it was the first time I ever considered that I had a choice in how I feel about the circumstances in my life. Grated we may not always choose to be happy about something or a particular situation in our lives … but the point is we have the power in that moment to choose how we want to react to it. That makes a big difference.
