Sometimes I catch myself being very self-absorbed and only concentrate on my little world. I lose the big picture.
I get all "life's not fair" and whine and complain about my relatively small and insignificant problems. I concentrate on the things I don't have, rather than on the things I do.
Really, my life is pretty great. I am in a good financial position. I have an excellent job. I have some health issues, but nothing terribly major. I have a wonderful family and boyfriend who all love and care for me. Not everyone has these things, and I need to remind myself of that.
The following link shows 3 young children who, along with their families, are going through a terribly trying time. I plan to make a card to send to one of the children to hopefully brighten their day.
