APPRECIATE YOUR LIFE

Good morning to your and to Friday.  I know I promised I wouldn't talk about my time off this summer but it fits so perfectly with today's quote which is "What appears as a perfect life for someone might not be the perfect life for you - appreciate all you have, what you have been given and the future blessings your will receive."

Your life is yours and mine is mine.  Never wish to trade as it is all or nothing.  No one really knows the struggles others may be facing.  It's like looking at a store window.  Of course it is beautiful for the public to see but who knows what garbage is strewn behind the beauty.

Yes, even I have garbage.  we all do but I prefer to keep my own.  If you look hard and deep enough you will see that you are better off keeping your own garbage too.

We all notice what others have and what we lack.  A bigger house, a pool, an amazing job, the list is endless.  What we need to understand is that it isn't the bigger house, it's what is inside.  It isn't the amazing job.  We can't all be the head cardiologist in a hospital and would we even want to.

Wanting someone else's life is a package deal.  You cannot have bits and pieces.  We also know that so called perfect family with the perfect everything who lost a child in a tragic way.  Suddenly that life is not so perfect and yours looks pretty damn good. 

Don't look at a tragic event to realize how lucky you are.  Never look at what is missing but instead be grateful for all you do have, what you have been given and both present and future blessings.  Everything you deserve is heading your way.

Have a wonderful Friday and a wonderful weekend everyone!~Love, Amy
