instead of lament the imperfection I thought how fortunate I am that my feet hit the ground when I woke, that I have a roof over my head, a job, food on the table, a few good people around me and the mindset of gratitude to bind it all together.
Oh I started to practice this kind of gratitude mentality too and it definetely helps in the hard days. It takes daily practice to see the half full part of the glass.
Gratitude is never an overrated emotion.
