Gotta Love Martha

Behind every good President. . .

. . . is a great First Lady. In honor of Presidents' Day, I chose a quote from our first First Lady.

I am determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may find myself. For I have learned that the greater part of our misery or unhappiness is determined not by our circumstance but by our disposition. -Martha Washington


Hey, what do you know, I'm just like Martha! I always knew this was a universal principle that applied to everyone and through all time, but it's nice to see it confirmed in writing! (I've also seen Paul write the same thing in the Bible)
