I was thrilled to read that you appreciated my note on not dancing because I had no toothache. Thank you for sharing with us. I was thrilled realizing that I was not selected by God to help Him carry the burden of the world. I was thrilled realizing that I was not a bad person because I was angry to have to carry on the burden of bitterness, loneliness. Yesterday I realized that my life was like going to the grocery store: I have a choice to chose the food I want to purchase but I must bear the responsibility for my choice and have no right to get angry at God if I purchase the food I am allergic to, pay for them, carry them home and eat them. It made me laugh, because I realize that I always blame the rest of the world, get angry at it, become bitter, stay bitter and refuse to move on, and refuse to buy the right food.

Hello, @nannette2022
I agree with Sue, @sueinmn, that your analogy of picking items at a grocery store is so good! I do appreciate a good "word picture" when I see it and this one works well for me.
I plan on picking an attitude "off the shelf" today that will make this day as healthy as eating the right foods!

This, my friend, is a great philosophy for life.

May I post it on my bathroom mirror?
