Great beats good

"If you want something you've never had, then you have to do something you've never done. You have to give up 'the good' if you want to have the great. Is it hard? Probably. Is it worth it? Definitely."

I know a girl who left a good & comfortable relationship and was in the dark for the scary unknown for a while. She then found a great relationship with a great guy. She says all the time: Great beats good anytime.

Have a GREAT holiday season!

Your life can change in a second

I know a guy who reached proper retirement age and so he officially retired. Sometime after his retirement, his daughter got into a drug addiction. His daughter has a child (his grandchild). Without hesitating, he took the child in, cared for his grandchild as if his own, and in order to financially support his grandchild, he went back to work. Just when you think you've reached a certain point in your life, you turn around and see a different one.

We shouldn't be so attached to our pictures of how life should be. It's part of life to have unexpected turns or an unexpected change.



For some amusement, here's a picture of some change heheh:
