HIS SECRET
I read this little story which I am sure you will enjoy:
"An old man surprised everyone with his cheerfulness since he seemed to have an unusual amount of trouble and relatively few pleasures in life. When asked the secret of his cheery disposition, he replied, "Well you see, it's like this. The Bible says often, "And it came to pass," never, "It came to stay."
It reminds me of one of my affirmations, "Things come and things go." As you know, I love affirmations. I often say this when I am going through a difficulty. I also say it when I have a physical pain or problem. I get on with life, forget about it, and usually find that it is not too long before the problem disappears!
