Healing in Your Pain, the Silver Lining in the Clouds, and the Roses in Your Thorn Bushes

“We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”  Abraham Lincoln

Every moment of every day we get to decide how we will choose to see the world.  We can find reasons to complain or find reasons to rejoice.

The ability to find the optimistic perspective in real-time, while life is happening to you, is a gift.  Fortunately, it’s a gift that can be cultivated and developed.  With practice.

Today, I hope you find the healing in your pain, the silver lining in life’s clouds, and the roses in your thorn bushes.
