That’s a great way to approach life.
What’s even better is knowing that you are where you are in life because of what you lived through. So while my childhood sucked, I would have never met my DH if I hadn’t lived through it!
Ok… im pretty good with acronyms, but what is DH?
Also, here is a place where you can watch the trailer for the movie I was talking about.

They had to walk to escape killing and they were picked out of many to come to the states to see how they would react to America and how America would react to them. One of the things one of the guys said was something like: Americans have everything here. They have food and homes and still they always want more more more. It kinda made me realize how lucky I was. I have felt blessed for a long time, but these guys made me really appriciate stuff like running water and tv.
We were in Cuba over the holidays. We’re not the type to stay in the hotel, but to around and visit, so we saw how Cubans live. Trust me, we’re rich, all of us!

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmSo true! I realized that when I visited Malaysia many years ago (that was my first trip outside of the US). Seeing how a lot of those people lived made me appreciate things a lot more.

I totally agree, and that’s another thing that I try to remember when things get me down.

Its really funny how things work out, huh? I’ve thought very much the same thing. While I sometimes wish I could go back and undo various things in my life, my boyfriend and I would never have met if things didn’t happen as they did.
Exactly Mimi!
It took awhile, but I realized a while ago that everything does happen for a reason. Garth Brook’s song “The Dance” says it perfectly.So Mimi, what in your name?

I know how that goes. I had a situation where I was dating two guys, and had started to feel kinda serious about both of them. But as the US doesn’t allow bigamy, (and as they were both a little jealous,) I kinda had to choose. 🙂
I chose wrong. So totally, utterly wrong, and I suffered a lot because of it. And yet I know that if I’d chosen the right guy first, I’d never have been totally happy, because at the back of my mind I’d have always had the thought, whenever something went wrong, that maybe the other guy was better. I had to find out just how awful he was, so that I can be content with what I have. Luckily enough after my screw-up the guy I didn’t chose at first was still willing to be with me. He’d had a rough time of it too, but it was worth it to have the relationship we have now.

Eh? If you mean the “trek” part, I’m a huge Star Trek fan. 😀
Duh, trek. What series? Original? I love The Next Generation. Mmmm. Jon Luc…”Make it so”. Yes sir!
Oops…Nevermind!
Hubby is a Trekker too. I swear he can see 30 seconds of an episode and tell you what happens, who gets killed, and who Captain Kirk is going to hook up with!
