How happy can one be when you are caught with many more things to do then your time will allow? One time  my drivers license renewal was due, but the paper had been tossed into a pile and forgotten. By the time I got to that pile, I noticed that form which was due to renew that week. I headed to our DMV station the next day, which was on a Friday. Friday’s here are not good at DMV! Long lines awaited, but I was determined to see it through. Ironically after going through all of the steps, new photo included, I saw that they had typed in the wrong street address in my laminated, finished license. I waited in line to show the last person that had given me the license. When it was my turn, I told her the mistake, to which she took scissors and cut my new license in half! Now my smile became an angry frown! She obviously didn’t care about what had just happened, or about my lost time.

The whole process had to be followed again; even my photo. At that moment I decided to not let her/them win. I chose to correct my thinking by having a positive attitude. Because of that, I got my first decent DMV photo too! Time was lost, but I won!!

Only you and I can choose how we will handle ourselves in those moments. Juggling schedules to handle our work, kids, errands, appointments, and a myriad of other things, is not easy for any of us. We will do a series on ‘Choosing To Be Happy’ for us to gain some insight on not letting our circumstances rule us.
