"When one door of happiness closes, another one opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us." --Helen Keller
GUILTY!!!! This is why, when doing an unpleasant chore, I give thanks..."Thank you for the dishwasher". Thank you for these pretty flowered sheets" "Thank you that my A is not drinking today...he may be a tyrant, but at least, for today he's a sober tyrant".
There's never a new scene when looking at the closed door...but that window (of opportunity)...if you gaze outward (and upward) the view is endless, and the possibilities are endless too. I know personally that some days I just want to bang my head against that closed door....and it's pretty scary out that window, so, if it's easier, just look out, then wave out, then lean out. Let me know how you jump out, cause I haven't done it yet either.
Wishing all of you happiness for this day, and some peace, cause today may be all we have!
