Make A Change

Submitted by MA about 1 year ago.

My father owns his own company, which means I'm blessed to be surrounded with all the material items I want. You may think this is the perfect life, but I am never truly happy. My father is never home, so we are never as family oriented as I wish we were. I am never truly happy and my smile is deceiving because I wear it like a mask. It tells the world I'm happy, but inside I'm dying. When you want something in life go for it. Do what makes you happy. If you want something to change then do something about it. Don't sit here like I have for so long. "Trust your heart if the seas catch fire, live by love though the stars walk backwards." e.e. cummings

It is so very easy to just sit by and watch life go by as we remain unhappy with the way things are. We find excuses not to do what we need to find our dreams and make them happen. Trust you heart is right.....

The Foundation for a Better Life began as a simple idea to promote positive values. We believe that people are basically good and just need a reminder. And that the values we live by are worth more when we pass them on.
