“When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.” – Helen Keller
I love this quote! Since I began concentrating on changing my attitude about life almost two years ago…after hitting the wonderful age of 50, I realized I was often focused on the ‘closed doors’ the majority of my life. I am so grateful to have my eyes open and able to see the doors ahead of me. I’d always told my students over the past 29 years of teaching that teachers have eyes in the backs of their heads, but little did I know how much I was using mine outside of the classroom! I am enjoying this new “blog door” that I’ve opened! I wonder if anyone can relate to Helen Keller’s quote as well.
I love that quote by Helen Keller! It is so true. I have had different times in my life where I, too, have looked longingly at that closed door! I think age helps us to realize that there are so many doors to choose and we just need to turn around and see all those other opportunities! Thank you for this blog!
Thank you for sharing! I love looking ahead now, but still find myself peeking back every once in awhile….but usually with a smile!
