This is the philosophy of my life. I have to reiterate your post to help show the importance of this concept. You are in control of your life. Period. If you are in a bad or negative situation you always have the power to change it in some way. You are in control of your situations - they do not control you. Bad things happen to good people, bad things happen to bad people, it's how you react to them that defines who you are and how you lead your life. Taking responsibility for the experiences you have and the changes you want to see in your own life is the most empowering thing a person can do. Excellent post girl.
