Title - Our Lives...
Author - A. P. Toussaint

Too many a time we spend too much time checking and double checking every little detail and many times we do this with things we have little or no control over. The author makes the important point that worrying about how things in life may or may not turn out will not make much of a difference to the quality of life except to probably give us more to worry about. No one is in charge of your happiness but you. I strongly agree with the fact that if we threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's we'd grab ours back. She reminds us that our lives have worth and our experiences even more so; the way we see things affects the way we deal with them. She encourages us to start appreciating all the wonderful things that we already have going on. It is okay to be happy even though some things in our lives are not perfect.
