Working Up

by Dwayne Phillips

Each of us has the ability to change something in a direction which we desire.

I guess this post is a pep talk or an admonition to “buck up sissy pants” (I think I heard that phrase on a TV show).

Unhappy with the current situation? I am. Well, things don’t have to be this way. Things could be better (whatever better means to one person). Change them. Yes, I have the power to change things. Perhaps the only thing I can change is my thinking. Perhaps the only thing I can change is my attitude. Well, there are two things I can change right there.

And if I can change my thinking and my attitude, perhaps I can influence the thinking and attitude of one more person. And so on in some sort of geometric progression or whatever.

No, things don’t have to be this way. We can all do something to make things better. Let’s do better.
