Soooo true.... sometimes we are looking for "perfect serenity", but we really DO know that our program is working, when the good days outnumber the bad..... And the bad ones, somehow don't seem quite as devastating as they once did...

Amen! I try hard when things go wrong, to look at the bad part of the day and realize it could have been worse. I then try to change it into good day. Sometimes it takes me the next day to realize it.
Take yesterday's (Prayer's needed) I was flipping out because I have to see a surgeon about mammogram. As hard as I tried I was scared out of my mind. (A part of me still is.) But even though the day was pretty lousy, it really wasn't. I learned how many good friends I have here, and near me. All of you kept me sane as I struggled yesterday just to get through the day. So despite the "terrifying news", it really was a good day.
You give all of us hope. Thank you.
Live strong, Karilynn
