The ultimate revenge
Keep living well is the perfect
solution for you and others, when times are rough. If it appears that the world
is doing you in or perhaps, someone is giving you a difficult time for whatever
reason, the ultimate revenge is to keep living well.
What constitutes living well?
Have you ever sat down and made
a list of what you think living well means to you? What about to your family?
In no specific order, consider
some of these options: a roof over your head, food for the day, clean drinking water, a bed
to sleep in, family, friends, health, happiness, needs that are met, love, leisure
time and a job.
Now eliminate half of them. The
ones you choose to eliminate are your choice, no one else's. Now, how does it
feel to have to part with six of those options?
Can you state that you are
still living well?
Maybe you can, but maybe you
are not living well at this point, according to your point of view. It depends
upon you and how you define living well. What constitutes living well to one
person may not be considered to be living well for another.
Consider all of the options.
You have the choice of living well or not living well.
Reality has it that we do make
choices in our lives, some good and some not good.
Does living well mean not being
ill? To some people, yes, it will mean exactly that.
Does it mean having a job? To
some it will, but to others not having a job, being financially independent or
self employed is a much better way of living well.
Does living well mean having
the bare basics of life or does it include luxuries?
Note that not one of those
options is money. To you, does living well entail money?
Seriously examine your life and
see what you think constitutes living well. Those are the most important things
in your life, your priorities. Ask yourself what you (and your family) are
willing to sacrifice in order to maintain those priorities. At some point in
time, you may have to do that. Hopefully, that does not happen.
We can live well even without a
lot of extras. It takes ingenuity. To keep living well can be a challenge, but
it
is still possible.
Always remember one thing. No
matter what is happening in your life, treat yourself well. In other words, be
good to yourself (and to others).
Just because someone else is
giving you a rough time or hurting you, in some way, does not mean that you
should hurt yourself more or harm anyone else.
Take care of yourself.
Seek daily guidance from God
and enjoy every moment of your life.
Keep living life well! Teach
others to do the same and you will be glad that you did.
This is the ultimate revenge
and the perfect solution for you and others!
