Perspective

I was just remarking to my wife tonight how much bad luck we seem to be having. Yes, I admit to feeling a bit sorry for myself, after it became apparent this week that we will almost certainly lose thousands of dollars in a transaction gone wrong. If this wasn’t enough, I got a flat on the way home tonight, and had to wait almost an hour for assistance since I couldn’t see a darn thing (more lights on the roads, please!)
But when I got home, I happened to catch the footage of Ron Arad on Channel 10. Now, I feel like one of the luckiest people in the world.
Perspective’s a b*tch.

You just admitted you can’t change a tire in the dark.Without a cellphone you would have spent the night?
Be thankful you have thousands to lose. I’m trying to scrape up $300 to replace a damaged appliance.
We don’t have the money to lose – that’s the point.
But I’m thankful for everything I have.
