Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I'm guilty of this and I suspect others are too.
Today I learned that someone I know has taken a turn for the worse. Things were not all that great but in the past few months they really have gone down hill. I think this person may well have seen their last Christmas though no time frame has been indicated.
While I piss and moan about all the little things that are annoying and how things here at home could be better "if", this puts things into perspective. Life is short and this person is perhaps half my age. I need to be grateful for what I have, sometimes the cards you are dealt is a losing hand. Being 60 and healthy is much better than when you are 35-40 and find yourself close to death and in a great deal of pain.
Time to stop and smell the roses.
