Sometimes we imagine that something in particular will make us happy and when we get it, it doesn't and we're not. Our belief is that if we just had this one thing (marriage, children, a bigger house, a nicer car, a thinner body), then all would be right in our world. Sometimes we reach that goal and sometimes we don't. If it seems that something else is going to fix your life or make you happy then take a look at what you already have. You've created your own world and you can create an even better one, but if you aren't satisfied with the goals you have already reached then you won't appreciate the new ones when they come. Life is never perfect, nor the people we encounter. Relationships have their ups and downs and cycles, but appreciating the people that are in our lives today will improve our relationships with them and also will allow healthier relationships to develop in the future. Start the new year with a greater appreciation for all that you've achieved up until now. Look for the positive aspect of every situation.
