Depression, anger, fear, and frustration shadowed our steps because we didn’t take control of the only thing that’s ever been in our control absolutely—attitude. ~ Casey, Karen. A Life of My Own: Meditations on Hope and Acceptance (Hazelden Meditations Book 1) . Hazelden Publishing. Kindle Edition.

How can you have absolute control?
Simple! Give up trying to conquer depression,
anger, fear, and frustration…
every emotion or impulse
seeking dominance over you.
You cannot change the world
or the people who surround you!
You can only change a single thing…
the attitude with which you confront
the world and people around you,
the tragedies or turmoil that seem omnipresent,
the current situation that “normally”
would dominate you!
Instead, trust God to have control,
and with that conviction, that attitude,
the situation and the world around you
are precisely as you wish them to be!
