WHAT TIME IS IT..............



It is time to reflect....


Time to reflect on the past... in order to prepare for the future.
Time to reflect on the past... in order to forgive and forget
Time to reflect on the past... in order to remember the good times and the bad
It is time..... to separate the good from the bad and take lessons from the past to plan for the future.

It is time .........
to let go of all frustrations and sadness and embrace happiness. Create your own happiness - never depend on others for your own well being - never blame others for your failures and sorrows. Only YOU can decide which way you want to go and what you want to do with your opportunities even though it is often difficult to recognize them as such.

It is time .......
to grab all opportunities with both hands and use them to your best advantage. Every experience you have is an opportunity - even the less pleasant and downright horrible ones. It is up to you to turn the bad ones into something positive.

Life is like standing just inside the entrance to a tunnel...... If you turn around you see the road. This is like your past stretching behind you never to be seen again. Looking ahead you see a spot of light at the end of the tunnel. This could be your future stretching out in front of you - Dark and unknown - Only you can control what is at the end of the tunnel. You have to make your own destiny and live with it. Make your own decisions.


It is time .......
to plan ahead, then the tunnel will not be quite so dark. We are all in the dark when it comes to the future, but at least if you plan for that very dark future, it could mean a lighter road ahead. If those plans don't always work out exactly the way you want, then accept that it was not meant to be...... accept it and make the best of it.

If you accept the trials and tribulations life throws our way, life can always be good. Accept them as a test of your strength. You will never be given a burden that is too heavy for you to bear - it will only make you stronger.

It is time.....
to see clearly......
