Many times every day we encounter problems that need solutions. Each time we face a choice, we must find a way to go forward. We must find a way.
We must find a way to make the most of what we are given. Only rarely is it the same that is given to others. Living by comparison to others is not good, whether others wish us well or ill. It really means turning our self-esteem over to others. Those who wish us ill love this. It gives them the power they crave.
It helps to find a way to see the best in our circumstances. There are always others who see how our situation could be different, but others aren’t very good at considering our interests. Always looking at the down side doesn’t help.

Sounds a little like the Pollyanna Game. Always look at life with a smile and hope. What is my other choice? Be the Grinch and spoil every good thought with Debbie Downer thoughts? Thank God I choose Pollyanna. I am older and I hurt more, and yet I smile more than I ever have before. Overcoming fear and pain in life, I choose to be free and happy not letting my past have free rent in my head.
Someone once told me that the aspirin hadn't worked. Well, how do you know if it didn't work or was your headache just more than that dose could help you with? Why are you blaming the aspirin? Being optimistic allows me to live with hope. When I was first saved, I would wonder if God really exists or am I just believing in something that may not be true? I would rather go through life hoping it was true and having a better life because of it. I would not have lost anything if it worked out that way compared to not believing at all.
I am older and handicapped. I feel like "I should" be getting things done. Like I am not doing what others are doing. "I should" quit comparing myself to others and be grateful that I still have a good mind and can sit and muse about life. The younger people have energy drinks and coffee at 3 pm. If I did that I could come home and get extra done also, or I could have a stroke. Less caffeine, less accomplished, feeling less adequate. I have to stop comparing myself to those who are 20 and enjoy every moment of being who I am now. Find those moments of happiness and fulfillment. No one else is going to do it for me. I have to tackle my own little world, just as I have always survived, used my resources, and come out just fine. My world is just fine!
