I think my peace comes from my good fortune. --Jim Burns How we define good fortune is a significant indicator of ones attitude. While winning the lottery might be judged as good fortune by all of us, virtually every other occurrence will be evaluated in a very individualistic way. What seems like a wonderful situation or opportunity to one might greatly frighten his or her neighbor. Peacefulness is a feeling everyone deserves. Thank goodness its attainable. Perhaps were beginning to realize that it always was available even though it didnt seem within our grasp. The fault was never the result of external circumstances, even though that was where we laid the blame. Finally, were becoming willing to see that we will have all the peace and good fortune we want by simply taking charge of how we interpret the experiences that trouble us. Were never too old to develop a positive outlook on life. Some say, Im too old to change. But thats not true. Lets offer a good example to a friend who is still stuck in the chaos of a defeated perspective. Our demonstration of the attainment of peace may be all this person needs. Peace can be enjoyed by me today, regardless of circumstances, if I shift my perception ever so slightly.
