A heart filled with anger has no room for love.
Exude happiness and you will feel it back a thousand times.
Exude happiness and you will feel it back a thousand times.
A positive attitude is something everyone can work on, and everyone can learn how to employ it.
A fulfilling life is different to each person. You have to acknowledge your dreams, and not just wait for life to happen, and opportunities to come knocking at your door.
Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life. .
