"What I do to keep positive and on track is that I have at least one area at work, in my home or where ever I am that is organized and clean. In those places I am able to sit without outside problems and calm down. Allowing myself to return my thoughts to happiness and what is most important at the moment." ~ Lori Purdy Faitel
