Find a gift in everything.
There has to be something that we learn, or be grateful for, in anything in our lives that we may construe as negative/pessimistic.
I'm thankful for arthritis. I didn't find the gift in the people around me. I found it in pain. And i found it in dance. I'm grateful that i can still dance- the one thing i love. I'm grateful i am in nursing school- because if deformities/disabilities came any earlier, i'd be deprived of the chance. I'm grateful that i can walk- simply because my knees need no replacement yet. I'm grateful for the pain- because this four letter word has taught me how to mellow down sometimes, how to stop and think- think for others, how great it is to be in pain because it means i'm still alive and kicking, and lastly how to find joy in battling it by dancing(and not by meds).
