Week 15 with Venerable Fulton Sheen

This week we are reading the 15th number from "Way to Inner Peace." This week is all about our moods and dispositions. Do you have a pessimistic attitude or an optimistic one? I tend towards pessimism and it's something that I have to constantly check myself on. As Bishop Sheens teaches, too often our moods come from allowing ourselves to revolve around our external circumstances. What we must learn is to have our external circumstances revolve around us. We must learn that we have control over how we respond to negative events in our lives.  Three points to think about: Dispositions, control, and excuses.
