A Panicky Brainstorming Event

Got this forwarded e-mail message from my sister:

Today I Will Make a Difference

by Max Lucado

Today I will make a difference. I will begin by controlling my thoughts. A person is the product of his thoughts. I want to be happy and hopeful. Therefore, I will have thoughts that are happy and hopeful. I refuse to be victimized by my circumstances. I will not let petty inconveniences such as stoplights, long lines, and traffic jams be my masters. Optimism will be my companion... I refuse to allow what little time I have to be contaminated by self-pity, anxiety, or boredom... I will not let past failures haunt me. Even though my life is scarred with mistakes, I refuse to rummage through my trash heap of failures. I will admit them. ...I will press on. It’s OK to stumble… I will get up. It’s OK to fail… I will rise again.

Today I will make a difference.

TODAY I WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE. I WILL START WITH THE STORY RIGHT AWAY...(EVEN THOUGH IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M GAMBLING).

GANBARIMASU!
