What Is Your Balance?

Where do you fall on the line between feeling sorry for yourself and being grateful? For we all fall somewhere on this line, and this determines our life experiences. There will always be things for which we can feel sorry for ourselves, and it is normal to fall into this space at times, but we cannot stay there. Looking at yourself and the world through a prism of victimhood will bring you more of the same as your thoughts create your reality. There will always be something you can find that you are grateful for, even if it is "minor." Being grateful brings more blessings into your life, which creates more gratitude, more blessings, etc. It is a matter of where you put your focus and how strong your Will is which determines how you look at yourself and the world.
