I too try to count my blessings, rather than curse the darkness. When I have a choice, anyway.

"No Complaints" A great subject for any stroke survivor and their families and the care givers too. I tell you I have really learned to not complain for how I was, how I am now or how I might be down the road on the other side of my recovery process. I'm so glad I do what I do I wear a big smile every day because I well know it could have been worse than this for my life.

I just deal with each day as they come and glad to still be alive! I have no complaints either!

Stingray, I count my many blessings too and thank the Lord I'm still here with all of you!

Good blog.

Glad that you are enjoying the summer and your cat, I'm in the market to find a new cat lost mine in Jan and my heart is ready to give another one maybe two a new forever home

Keep up the good spirts

AKA content.... answer --- you have had hard times , and can see with clarity - life ,many times is only as hard as we make it... and while you could say - oh this glass is half empty, dog-gone it you found it is actually half full..... wisdom - you have earned it -- the hard way..nancyl
