Humor is key in living life fully. I have always loved the phrase, "This, too, shall pass." It is true. Even the worst days end.
This quote made me giggle:
"This, too, shall pass. It might pass like a kidney stone, but it will pass."
Perspective is a powerful thing. In the moment, pain is a powerful agent. It can be a real joy stealer, but it is temporary. How many times do we let temporary trials overshadow the good in each day.
If you children are healthy and you have a roof over your head, that is a great place to start giving thanks. If you have enough to eat and clean water, you are truly blessed. If your new shoes give you blisters, remember you have new shoes. The blisters will heal and the shoes will break in nicely after a few wearings.
Choice is our super power. We cannot always choose the circumstance, but we can choose how we respond to the circumstance.
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." -Romans 15:13
Hope floats. Rough times are temporary.
Today, I am grateful this, too, shall pass.
