Read this recently and it has been a mind shift..

"
Whenever a bad things happens, say 3 good things.

Got a Flat tire??
Great - Good thing I have a car.
Good thing I have a spare tire.
Good thing I have a charged phone or tank full of gas.

Spilled Coffee on your clothes?
Great - Good thing I have another shirt
Good thing I didn't get burned.
Good thing I have time to change.
"

Felt worth a share. Happy to hear inspiring quotes that changed your perspective. Happy Friday you all out there!

    I have a lot of trouble with my left ankle/foot. At times I can feel sorry for myself, until I see someone in a wheel chair or only having 1 leg. Gives a ton of perspective. Good topic consciousseeker.

    I still gots both legs
    I still gots both arms

    Stuck in bumper to bumper traffic due to a car accident up ahead or road work crews?

    • good thing it wasn’t me (grateful it wasn’t me/ praying no one was badly injured or killed ) 🙏

    • good thing there are people that work long hours in all types of weather because they care about keeping our roads/highways safe… 🫶 ( no complaints from me… I will gladly wait in traffic and turn up my Star 99.1 radio station volume for those behind me that are impatiently honking their horns 😃 🚙

    • good thing I always use the restroom before I get on the road 🤞

    Three happy places while I’m mostly bedridden.

    -A cat stealing a yarn ball and then being chased by his brother back and forth until two beds in different rooms are tied together taut.

    -a thunderstorm on a warm day rolling in while watching from a safe place.

    -watching pets getting cozy for a nap. Bonus points, you’re being included!

    I had diabetes, cancer, and got in a car accident on my 40th bday.

    This worst year made my life the best ever after.
    🔅I lost 100 pounds.
    🔅Changed thoughts in my head from insulting to encouraging
    🔅Athletic lifestyle where I hike out in nature
    🔅Social anxiety gone from social exposure

    Okay, that's 4 things. A little extra 😁
