A Day In Alaska

.

when I started this blog it was for me and me alone, When i saw that people got something out of what I was saying I continued.see when I admit to myself that I have a particular weakness, By writing how I feel I've taken an important step in getting beyond it. For once I have seen the weakness clearly, I will come up with many ways to work on it, And this blog was one of those ways.
When I've discovered a weakness, I've identified a pathway to strength. Working to get just a single weakness out of the way can add increased power and effectiveness to everything I do.See Im far from being a perfect man. When in fact Im just the oppisite, I stuggle daily to try to live by the words I say.
For every weakness that I have, there is a strength with which I can replace it. From every weakness, there is something of value to be learned.
Weakness is nothing to be ashamed of so I have bein teaching myself. Rather, it is something to be worked on.
What if the very same factors that now work against me could be changed into forces that propel me forward? By having the courage to face my own weaknesses, I can make that happen.
If I see my weaknesses for what they are. then I'll see that they are filled with opportunity.If only others could see what you were trying to work on it would make more sence to them. Thanks to all who read my blog. hope life is rewarding.

The value in it all

There are many situations in life in which our best choice is to respond with immediate, effective action. Yet in other situations, the best response is just to simply and completely let it go.
When there's something I do that will make a positive difference, then by all means I'll do it. When my actions will do nothing other than enter an impassable point; a blind alley, I need to learn to let it go and let it be.
There are things I can change. And there are things I cannot change.
I'll embrace what I can change with positive, persistent effort. Embrace what I cannot change with peaceful, enlightened acceptance.
I'll put my energy into pursuits that will bring value I should choose not to waste that energy fighting destructive battles that do nothing more than satisfy my ego.
There is profound beauty both in what I can do and in what I cannot do. I'll learn to see the value in it all.
