Let's be active participants in our lives!

There is nothing more sad than to see a person who wallows in self pity. It is self pity and the lack of active participation in their life that keeps them stuck where they are. It is my opinion that those who are happy in life or would consider themselves "living the GoodLife" are those who are actively participating in their lives.

  1. I think some some people reach a "comfort zone" and they find that it is difficult to break the cycle of self pity. I don't see the point in whining because life is not always perfect but I was also taught to pick myself up and keep on going. It's important to understand that not everyone has been given the tools to do that.

  2. I completely agree!!

    Unfortunately I know several people who choose to sit in their homes and watch others live because they feel sorry for themselves and the state of their lives. What I wish they would get is that everyone has hills and valleys. Your circumstances won't change as long as you sit idle. You are right Mickey, not all individuals posses those tools which saddens me. These courses should be part of an educational requirement for everyone - not just Health Sciences majors.

    Great thought Mickey!!
