NO MATTER WHAT

     I often want circumstances to be a certain way so that I can feel a certain way- with all things being perfect. But life is not like that. It's rare for everything to come together at the same time. One situation begins to resolve and another is just getting started.
     We have to find a way to be ok no matter what. No matter the who; no matter the why and where, we can be peaceful. We can be happy. We can be well. It is not circumstances that determine our state of mind, but our mind that determines the state of our circumstances.

I can be happy and at peace no matter what.
