Something inspirational:

“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.”

  1. This is so inspirational and true. We must take charge of our lives if we really want to be happy.

    How many people want to go through life with someone else or others controlling every aspect of it? My daughter needs to learn to do this. She is so dependent on my mom for a lot of things.

    I learned after my first marriage failed that to be happy I have to stand on my own two feet. This is my life and no one else can live it for me.
