EXCUSES

We convince ourselves that life will   be better after we get married, have a  baby, and then another. Then we are  frustrated that the kids aren't old   enough and we believe that we'll be more   content when they are.

    After that, we're frustrated that we   have teenagers to deal with.  We will   certainly be happy when they are out of  that stage. We tell ourselves that our   life will be complete when our spouse   gets his or her act together, when we  get a nicer car, when we're able to go   on a nice vacation, or when we retire.

    The truth is there's no better time to   be happy than...

                  RIGHT NOW !!!

    If not now, when? Your life will  always be filled with challenges. It's   best to admit this to yourself and
  decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is   the way.

    So, treasure every moment that you   have, and treasure it more because you   shared it with someone special, (special   enough to spend your time with), and   remember that time waits for no one.

    So, stop waiting...

  ** until your car or home is paid off.

  ** until you get a new car or home.

  ** until your kids leave the house.

  ** until you go back to school.

  ** until you finish school.

  ** until you lose 10 lbs.

  ** until you gain 10 lbs.

  ** until you get married.

  ** until you get a divorce.

  ** until you have kids.

  ** until you retire.

  ** until summer.

  ** until spring.

  ** until winter.

  ** until fall.

  ** until you die.

    There is no better time than RIGHT NOW to be happy.

    Happiness is a journey, not a destination.



    So,

    Work like you don't need money.

    Love like you've never been hurt,

    And dance like no one's watching.
