We have to embrace obstacles to reach the next stage of joy.
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day." Charles R. Swindoll
“You can clutch the past so tightly to your chest that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present.”
Jan Glidewell quotes

I love it! My word, or theme is "Choose." I will choose to make each moment count. I will choose to be the person I want to be rather than focus on the things that I am not. I will choose to live my life to it's fullest rather than letting my life pass me by. And now, I will choose to embrace life! :)
