To remember that things happen for a reason, even though I may not have a clue what that reason is
To recognize that someone being a dick to me doesn't mean I need to return the favor
To accept that sometimes living well is the best revenge
To recognize that opportunities sometimes come from strange and wholly unexpected places
To know that whatever happens, I'm going to be better for it
To understand that I'm the captain of my own ship...which means I have only myself to blame if I that ship hits an iceberg
To remember that I may think I'm in prison, but I too often forget that i have the key to my cell
To know that I deserve better
To enjoy the gift of time
To celebrate life without an alarm clock
To recognize that change represents an opportunity to find something better...and I will
To remember that it was a job, not who I am
To be thankful for the quality people I've come to know over the past eight years
To embrace the challenge in front of my without anger or bitterness
