I think both of you have definitely "stripped away the rose colored glasses"... the theme of this blog.<br />Thank you for visiting.

"Why me?" we might ask.<br />Through my own experience of illness, though, I've come to think of even horrible experiences as things which we can learn from, and I think you can always look around and find someone less fortunate than yourself. So, perhaps it pays to remind oneself occasionally of how lucky we are and to count our blessings. Maybe that way we can try to remain positive and not feel cheated by life. To quote Neil Baldwin (who I wrote my last post about), "I always wanted to be happy, so I decided to be."<br />Thanks for this post, Dixie, it certainly got me thinking!<br />Very Best Wishes, from your blogging pal,<br />David.

But those unanswered prayers or rejected requests give me pause... as things usually turn out for the best, for me.Dixie@dcreliefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11558671709412200904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169296047258820802.post-2195444296752731282014-10-15T07:52:40.294-04:002014-10-15T07:52:40.294-04:00It may feel that we are cheated at times, but I do...It may feel that we are cheated at times, but I don't think we are in the greater scheme of things/life. I don't fully understand life but my feeling is that we are here, at this time, to learn by experiences.
