I’ve been blogging about this a lot recently, but gratitude keeps coming back to my salvation. When having a rough time of it, we can always return to thinking about how good we absolutely have it.

Reminiscing over photos of good times can help, especially if done with loved ones. Remembering what we’ve experienced and the important people in our life provides added perspective.

However irritating a few hours might be, if we step back and examine it all, we realize it could always be worse. After all, it still is a big beautiful amazing world, and we get the opportunity to make the most of our circumstances.
