Whatever you choose
+++++++++++++++++++
Any day can be special when you decide that it is. Any place can be special when you make it so.
The smallest, most ordinary moments can bring the biggest, most extraordinary rewards to your life. It’s all a matter of what you make of those moments.
The day can be bright whether the sun is shining or not. For you can choose to make it so.
The only thing that happiness requires is a choice. It is a choice that can be made anytime, at any place.
There’s no need to wait for conditions to be perfect. You can fashion a perfectly wonderful moment out of whatever conditions you come upon.
Go ahead and see what you can make out of this very moment, this very day. You’ll see that it is whatever you choose.

Luke 21:29-33
“And He (Jesus) told them a parable: “Behold the fig tree and all the trees; as soon as they put forth leaves, you see it and know for yourselves that summer is now near.”
“Even so you, too, when you see these things happening, recognize that the kingdom of God is near.”
“Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all things take place.”
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.” Luke 21:29-33 (NAS) Forward to a friend
John 20:10-17
“So the disciples went away again to their own homes. But Mary was standing outside the tomb weeping; and so, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb; and she beheld two angels in white sitting, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been lying.”
“And they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.” When she had said this, she turned around, and beheld Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus.”
“Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, “Sir, if you have carried Him away, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means, Teacher).”
“Jesus said to her, “Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren, and say to them, ‘I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.’” John 20:10-17 (NAS)
