There are times in life that we may ask ourselves \\”what if,\\” or \\”if only?\\” \u00a0It is important that we learn from previous \\”what if\\” experiences and work towards taking actions that will limit our \\”ifs\\” in life.\u00a0 We should work towards gratitude for what we have and not wish for the \\”what if.\\” \u00a0Happiness must come in the now.\u00a0 If we are waiting for a future event, person, or place we will find it very hard to locate happiness.\u00a0 When we are happy and grateful in the now, then when we participate in the event, find the person or reach the place, we are still able to be happy.
\nJoy in life is a choice.\u00a0 One that can be hard at times because we have to fight off other emotions or feelings.\u00a0 It is important that we choose to be happy and understand each situation for what it represents.\u00a0 A snap shot in time.\u00a0 My boys like Kung Fu Panda and the wise master shared this statement, \u201cthe past is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift, that is why it is called the present.\u201d\u00a0 What will you find today as you open your presents?
\nIf you go about today with the right focus and attitude you will find the gifts to be everything you wanted and more.\u00a0 When you open a present that was not on your wish list, be grateful for it and remember it will soon be history.\u00a0 Enjoy the now, be grateful for all your gifts both uplifting and challenging for they each teach us differently for our journey.\u00a0 The law of attraction says we attract what we focus on so focus on happiness and gratitude.\u00a0 By doing so you will attract more things to be happy and grateful for in your life.
