Me Too!!!! I am SO grateful!

Wow. That quote really does say one of the things I am most thankful for...

Amen to that. I am very grateful.

No matter what happens to me, I always realize - with great perplexity - that it could have been so much worse.

i hear that.

My immediate reaction to this quote is: Ssshhhhh! Don't let the Goddesses hear you say this.

Wow, such a profound thought, and also appropriate for my life recently! I often wish I had that kind of optimistic outlook all the time! ;)

Excellent quote, full of truth.

This is very true isn't it - it puts things into perspective.

We tend to go through life lamenting our lot, when in actuality, there are few problems compared to others who are much less fortunate. We worry about buying gas at inflated prices, while others worry about having enough to buy food to live.

Awesome thought, thanks!

I am also very grateful for the compassion that I have both received and given.

Mr. Prager puts it quite well. Thanks for sharing this, Red Pen.

Lately, I've taken to calming myself down over problems by saying to myself, "Some people have real problems." Amazing how well it works.
