As part of the #o2surprise that I received last week, there was a jar of smiles. Many were keen to see what would come out of the jar each day, so here are the ones so far!

The one that I picked out on Friday was "If you want to see the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain".

This morning I picked out "Relax and reflect. A bad day doesn't mean it's a bad life".

So after a couple of busy days, here is another thought:
It won't be easy.
But it'll be worth it

Today we are mainly thinking:
You may not know what the future holds, but you sure know who holds your future

That's one I don't agree with actually. Sometime YOU can strive as hard as you are able, then fate (or something else) throws a curveball.

I still have a few of these left, so here is one for today:
Don't look back.
You're not going that way.

That's a good thought @gmarkj.

However, sometimes it's difficult NOT to look back. For instance 3 years ago, we had a lovely apartment in Spain. We had it for 38 years and I loved being able to fly out there at the drop of a hat. For various reasons, which I won't go into here but it included health, we had to sell it quickly. 

I miss it more than anyone will ever know. So, at times like this, with a cold winter and being someone who loves the sun and the friends I had there, I can't help looking back and thinking 'if only' slight_frown

Great sentiment, but

Surely the reason we look to the past.. is so we don’t make the same mistakes again..

For example .. I won’t be getting married again!
