Dear Abby

 Dear Abby

I read Dear Abby every day. Most of the people who post there are not happy about something. New Years day, Abby wrote resolutions which were adapted from her late mother:

JUST FOR TODAY 

I will live through THIS DAY ONLY. I will not brood about yesterday or obsess about tomorrow.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will decide to be happy. I will not dwell on thoughts that depress me.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will accept what is. I will correct and accept those I can correct and accept those I cannot.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will improve my mind. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will do something positive to improve my health.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will gather the courage to do what is right and take responsibility for my own actions.

I guarantee you will be a happier person if you live your life with these resolutions,

NOT JUST FOR TODAY BUT EVERYDAY
