I have found that your attitude is the general barometer for how you will feel about an event or something you experience. That’s why my tagline is “You can’t always choose your circumstances but you can always choose your attitude.” I am not saying that you should go through life ready to whip out your pom-pons;…..
As the saying goes, you don’t always appeciate something until you lose it. So very true! Throughout my illness (pneumonia) I sorely missed running.
