Be the Good Witch

Today happened. We plan, we worry, may even feel stress over what tomorrow will bring, but we live in the day that is happening. Often we look forward to the day, it will bring joy and happiness, a special day. Sometimes the day doesn’t go according to our plans and dreams. Or the day exceeded all expectations. Whatever happens is without regard to us, as if we were playing a minor role on the outside looking in on the action. Do we as character actors in the play have any control over where the life plot is going and what the climax will be?

I hope so and for this reason. What we do control is how we deal with the day. We can opt to do our best to make any situation work to our advantage simply by changing our attitude. I’m not referring to clichés about looking for the good in everything; it’s more of adjusting our frame of mind to have the day work for us by changing how we feel. With a good attitude we can accept the day for our benefit and do the best we can possibly do. Because at the end of the day, we win if we can say, “I did my best for the good.”

My motto is this: “Be yourself, unless you are a witch, and if you are a witch, be a good one.”
