I, not events, have the power...

By
Real Estate Agent with Fathom Realty Washington LLC

I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it!

 

Attributed to Groucho Marx (1890 - 1977)

Good morning, Paul... who knew Groucho was so "deep." But he was totally right... it's how we handle things that matter and we don't have anything but today.
