There is a saying, I complained because I had no shoes,
then I met a man who had no feet. That
tells me that no matter how bad you have it, things could be worse. At times my husband would become depressed
over his situation. He was hurt on the
job, paralyzed, then later bedridden.
That was enough to depress anyone, and it was a constant struggle to give
him a positive outlook. I had to remind
him that he had a home, with a roof over his head, friends and family to talk
to, and all the television channels that the cable company provided. Our life was not great, but it wasn't the
worst either, it just depends on how you few things.

This month, take a look at your life, and the things
