Enjoy The Good Days


True happiness resides within each of us We alone are responsible for our own well being It is so easy to blame external forces, people, or events But the bottom line is, we're the ones steering the ship We're the Captain, the First Mate Right down to the deckhand swabbing the deck So here's my advise to all you nice people Always, always think positive The dark days are only temporary Believe me, life is always about ups and downs Endure the bad days... enjoy the good days

Good advice here— “ But the bottom line is, we're the ones steering the ship” — so very true! Steer with positivity even through life’s inevitable darkness and storms. Sending lots of positivity and love your way Jack. You’re the best truly! Always, Laura
