Rebellion against your handicaps gets you nowhere. Self-pity gets you nowhere. One must have the adventurous daring to accept oneself as a bundle of possibilities and undertake the most interesting game in the world-making the most of one's best. Author Harry Emerson Fosdick

*Oh woe is me… or maybe not* *I suffered a heart attack which made feel I had nothing left to give* *On the other hand I survived. Oh thank you Lord for letting me live* *I have had a bad ankle for years and it affects my stride* *On the other hand when I go out I simply get in my car and ride* *I have allergies to deal with and always have a runny nose* *On the other hand I can blow my nose. How much of burden does that impose?* *I have skin rashes and aching joints and my hearing is going to pot* *On the other hand I take Benadryl and can turn the TV sound up a lot* *I am old and my joints are painful and I forget everything* *On the other hand I remember the words and sing along when Elvis sings.* *Life’s not so bad in fact it’s downright great and I’m still in love with my life* *Dear God I thank you for it was you who gave me life*
