WHAT WE CAN CONTROL

We cannot control the length of our life,
but we can control its width and depth

We cannot control the contour of our countenance,
but we can control its expression

We cannot control the other person's annoying habits,
but we can do something about our own

We cannot control the distance our head is above the ground,
but we can control the height of the contents we feed into it

God help us do something about what we can control and leave all else in the hands of God!
