Supposed To

If you do good work, you're supposed to remain employed.
 
If you try your hardest, that's supposed to be enough, at least for the people who know you.
 
If you go into situations with a positive attitude, you're supposed to come out with a positive outcome.
 
If you start exercising when you haven't before, you're supposed to lose weight, or at least look as though you have.
 
If you get a good night's sleep, you're supposed to bound out of bed, ready to face the new day.
 
If you worked your normal, everyday day, you're supposed to have enough energy left at night to cook and clean and manage both disputes and bills.
 
If you have a three day weekend, you're supposed to feel the restorative power of it for a whole week.
 
Clearly "supposed to" is just that--"supposed to"--something that someone sometime supposed. If you're waiting for "supposed to," I recommend getting used to "what is," or at least "what you make happen." You'll be a whole lot happier. And isn't that what we're supposed to try to be?
