I just love this...

A good friend of mine left this quote on my wall on facebook and I must say that I truly love it.
Your life is up to you. Life provides the canvas you do the painting, take charge of your life or someone else will.
There's been some things going on in my life and this has made me really stop and do some thinking. I'm not one to make big, drastic, fast changes in anything that I do. I like to think everything through and really take the time to think of both the pros and the cons. I'm not a person that goes spewing at the mouth if I disagree with something. I tend to sit back, take it all in, and if I still feel the need to voice an opinion...I do. Since I don't like confrontation, most times I just hold in my opinion. This is something that I've really been working on lately and I'm truly blessed to have some really great friends who listen and offer me great advice.
I think my summer mantra is going to be the above quote because it strikes very true for me.
