Tomorrow Is Another Day


This is probably one of my all-time favorite quotes.  It is by Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind. 

This is a quote that can be taken as negative, or positive.  This post is about making it something positive.  Many times I have quoted this, and probably, not for the most positive of reasons.

We all make mistakes.  Most of us have probably had a moment, or more, that we were not the most proud of ourselves, or our behavior. Maybe we have made a hurtful comment to someone. For those of my friends in Weight Watchers, we may have a bad day, or we may fall off of the wagon for a long time.  We may see a shift in the scale, and it be so disappointing that we just give up.   The point is, that beating ourselves up over these things, is just not good for us.  We all have to learn to forgive ourselves for these things.

It is good for your heart, mind and soul, to move on, forgive yourself, and let the past be the past, even if the past was just five minutes ago!

So, get back on the wagon!  Strive to change the number on the scale for the better!  Strive to be a better person!  Tell yourself that tomorrow is another day, and make tomorrow a better day!  Each day gives us a new start!

    Yes, so true. We need to remember Scarlett's words and be kind to ourselves when we make mistakes.

Today There's Sunshine In My Soul

I love sunshine!  I'm sure that most of us do.  It makes me feel happy and good inside!  With our weird winter/spring, many of us may not have seen much sunshine lately!  Dreary weather can dampen spirits and moods.  It doesn't have to be that way! It doesn't matter if it is sunny, or rainy.  It doesn't matter if it is hot or cold.  WE can be the sunshine in someone's day!  We can lift someone's spirits when they are down!  It doesn't take much effort to g ive someone a sincere compliment, or to give someone a helping hand.  You never know what someone is going through.  Simply give someone a smile!  It might just put them in a better mood, or take their sadness away.  We can be the difference in someone's day!   Help spread some sunshine around! Today there's sunshine in my soul!  Is there sunshine in yours?  **If you like this post, please feel free to share it, or to share the link to the blog!  It is with your help that I may r

What Lies Within Us

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."  - Ralph Waldo Emerson   I am a firm believer that most people do not realize how strong they are until they have a circumstance in which they have no choice but to be strong.  At that time, people do begin to recognize their strength. What characteristics and traits to you believe lie within you?  Are you strong?  Are you determined?  Are you persistent?  Are you detail-oriented?  Are you confident?   All of these things are characteristics that will allow you to succeed in any task that you wish to take on.  Once you begin working toward you goals, others will see these characteristics in you.  All of us have at least a little bit of these characteristics within us.  Maybe our self-esteem is a little bit lower than it should be.  Maybe we struggle to improve ourselves in these areas.  By setting goals and working toward them, we discover that we do have these charact

Celebrate Your Wins

Celebrations are so much fun!  There are not enough celebrations in our lives!  Only we can change this! We each have big goals that will take a while to accomplish.  What we need to think about, is that we accomplish smaller goals every day, that lead us to accomplishing our main goal.  Did you eat better today?  Did you drink more water?  Did you take more steps?  Did you weigh in, and the number on the scale go down?  Did you fit into a smaller size in clothes?  Did you feel good today?  Did you like the person that you saw in the mirror?  Were you proud of yourself today? Those are only a few examples of ways that we win each day!  Celebrate your wins!  Be proud!  Post them for others to see!  Congratulate others on their wins!  Celebrating these wins will make our goals seem attainable!  Celebrating with others has a positive impact, for them, but also, for yourself! Take time to celebrate every day!  Celebrate your wins!  Celebrate yourself! **If you like this post,
