Dance Like No One's WatchingWe convince ourselves that life will be better
after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are
frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more
content when they are. After that we're frustrated that we
have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when
they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will
be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we
get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice vacation, when we
retire. So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up, until you die, until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy... Happiness is a journey, not a destination. Work like you don't need money, Author unknown Special thanks to Kathy Ragsdale for this
