Don't Sit on the Cactus

Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult. You may be given a cactus, 

but you don't have to sit on it.

I read this quote somewhere this week but am unable to remember where.  It just stuck with me (no pun intended) and I wanted to share it.  If anyone knows from whence the quote comes, I'll be happy to give credit.

*The quote comes from Joyce Meyer in her book Approval Addiction: Overcoming Your Need to Please Everyone.
