Things can get better...

@Notanymore It definitely helps to focus on the blessings.

@SW-User i often forget just how lucky I am to have a warm, dry place to sleep, hot and cold running water and electric lights.....when I get upset over something as trivial as an ex wife or bad football game.

@Notanymore Exactly, except that I never forget how fortunate I am. Health and other challenges made me permanently aware of things many people take for granted.

@SW-User we should never sweat the small stuff

@Notanymore True. But I'm not one of those who's going to tell you that it's all small stuff. I acknowledge that some things are really a big deal. We just have to learn the difference between what's worth our time and what isn't.

@SW-User fair assessment
