None of us can change our past. What we can do is change our present and
future. We can decide there is a better way to live with better values to live by.
We sometimes forget that we all have what is needed to change the world
around us. Every time we do a good deed or show concern for others, we
are making our place in this world better. The key is that we all have choices
and we can choose a positive attitude. I ran across this poem I'd like to share:

When we start to count flowers
We cease to count the weeds
When we start to count blessings,
We cease to count needs.
When we start to count laughter,
We cease to count tears.
When we count happy memories,
We cease to count years.

Psalm 46:1: "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
