To be thankful for one thing is infinitely more powerful than to be bitter about a hundred others.

Rather than being incensed by the nature of the bruise, maybe we should be inspired by the possibilities in the bruise.

It’s really a rather simple thing to bring balance to my anger. All I need to do is remember that the ‘hand of cards’ that have been dealt to me pale in comparison to the ‘deck of cards’ that I’ve thrown at others.

In my desperation, I have finally discovered that the only way that I can begin to fill the gaping hole within me is to be thankful for what’s there, and not angry for what’s not.
