Write 28 Days - Day 4 - Make

Life is what you make of it...

Right?

Wake up each morning and breathe in the new day; and make it a good one!

Or, wake up and see the situation that you live in every single day of your life, at least at this point in your life...

And...

Do what?

Just go on taking it one day at a time; just make it work the best you can!!

"This too shall pass", someone once said.  And really, it does, doesn't it?  I mean, the days go on and on and on; and it either gets better, or it gets worse.  Or, maybe it will stay the same for a while.

I received one of those "flip-style" calendars for Christmas and love the quotes from various people.  One quote for two days; the one for Sunday, January 5th and 6th, is from a young girl who stood up for her:

"Let us make our future now, and let us make our dreams tomorrow's reality."  -  Malala Yousafzai.

{December 5, 2019 - Malala Yousafzai Biography.  As a young girl, Malala Yousafzai defied the Taliban in Pakistan and demanded that girls be allowed to receive an education.  She was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman in 2012 but survived.  In 2014, she became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.  Additional information about Malala can be found here.}

She has certainly made her dreams a reality, hasn't she??!  And was able to make a way for many others at the same time.

Not really sure that my future or my dreams have anything to do with anything as major as young Malala has undertaken...

But, there is a reality to the life that I am currently living; and that life will be affected by the decisions I make at this point.

And those decisions can be very hard.

But necessary!
