We are all living out our own unique story. We call it life, and it’s easy to forget we are the storyteller - not the story. In stepping back and seeing ourselves as the creator of our story, we step into the power to write our next chapter anyway we desire.
Grateful.. It’s a word that describes my feelings perfectly. Obviously I don’t always feel it. After all, we all have our off days now and then, where we can get just angry at the world and everyone in it. But in general, for me, gratefulness is most always present. And I think it should be more present in the lives of others too.
It is simple enough to say, ‘I want to be better’ just as it may be simple for others to tell us we can be better. The predicament lies in the how. How do I become better? Words are empty if they do not guide and instruct us toward self- betterment.

How satisfied are you with your life? How well do you deal with the inevitable curve balls that life throws at us? How do you view all that is good in your life? What are your feelings about the future that awaits you? All these things influence your quality of life. But what is ‘quality of life’?
Everyone needs a break now and then; a time to relax, recoup, and rest. As a college student, I’ve really learned to value the break time I get because the semester itself is non-stop. What I didn’t realize is the importance of giving your mind a break as well as your body.
