Own it to change it

“I have learned from experience that happiness is an acquired skill. There is always something to complain about, even in the best of times. And there is always something to celebrate, even in the worst of times. Happiness is not an objective reality so much as a subjective decision. Chronic complainers miss the boat.”(Marianne Williamson)

If I decide to claim being a victim I am submitting my situation to chance in other words I am taking the easy way out which tends to lead to roads of suffering. If I wallow in a pool of regret and I blame everything that happens in my life on me how can I move forward from the situation? How can I move at all if I am living in a place to blame, that my friend would be me living in a place that doesn't exist. In order for me to even consider my blameful situation I would have to use my mind and place the siuation in the now, why would I do that? But if I am not to blame myself and if I am to take full responsiblities for my action how is this to be done. By owning my situaiton and also by letting it go. If I own my siutation I am able to make a change whether for better or worst. To say, "yes I did cause this and I don't like this so now I will change this to a more preferable outcome" would work in everyone's benefit. So in closing I want to just say that we are only victims if we claim to be as such. We are able to preceive a situation any way we chose to. I chose to preceive every situation an oppurtunity for growth and growth in life is always for my benefit. Why sit and complain? Learn, grow stronger and move forward to that place which always dictates joy.
