Ahh, I see the venting helped you get back on track! We have a little sign in our house that I found someplace that says, “There is always, always, ALWAYS something to be thankful for!”
Every day for the last 18 or so years, we decided that we would figure out one thing that happened that day to “celebrate”. It can be very mundane, like “the sun was out today!” to “I got something done from my to do list today” to birthdays, anniversaries, and the like, to an answer to prayer. It seems like if we look for it, we can’t help but notice how blessed we are, every single day. The key is to have an attitude of gratitude.
Today we will be thanking God for my husband’s amazing eye checkup. His vision is now 20/30 in the eye where he had the surgery, and the center of his vision is returning quite nicely! Thanks be to God!
“There is always, always, ALWAYS something to be thankful for!”
That is SO true! And that’s why I tried to turn my ‘cr@ptastic day’ upside down, LOL!
I got divorced in January, 2010. It wasn’t my CHOICE, but it WAS my current situation. I did a, ‘365 Days of Gratitude’ project and it was amazing how that turned me right around.
Yeah, ONE person out of 8 Billion people doesn’t like you for some reason. Big Hairy Deal! Perspective in all things.
