Tommy's Girl Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 I'm a firm believer in our attitudes determining our peace and happiness. I know I've matured a lot in the last few months. Last night my H and I were finally going to have a night alone without the kids. Well, he was sick with a cold and went to bed early. Obviously it's not his fault, but a few months ago I think I would have sulked. It would have been more fuel to continue my EA. Instead I thought about how blessed I am that he only has a cold and not something worse. I thought about that fact that I still get to sleep beside him. I thought about how his unselfishness lead me out of my selfishness. Life is unpredictable. I've learned to appreciate all the the little things that I used to take for granted rather than sulk like a baby when things don't go my way. When I woke up next to him I thanked God for another day with my sweetheart.

Luv2dance Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 Wow..thanks for writing this!! I lived almost this exact thing last night and really had a bad attitude about it. It is hard to remember the positive sometimes in the moment of disappointment, but you are right about how our attitude can change things!
Eve Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 Nice to read something so positive. Take care, Eve xx
