Google: "People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
- George Bernard Shaw"
This is something I strongely believe in. A lot of people like to sit around and complain about their lives. They blame their problems on things that happened in the past. They blame their spouses or their parents or little black rain clouds that follow them around and cause their cars to break down. But don't we all have those problems from time to time? At some point you have to stop whining about your problems and start looking for a solution. Spend that wasted time more wisely and get out there and do something about it.
Of course it takes something big to make a person realize this. Something major or even life threatening like a bolt of lightning to the head or like in my case it just takes a little 8 year old kid to say, "Well mom, why don't you just take your car for a checkup?"
Doh!
