...it's a choice! WE choose our attitude. I know many say but you don't have my life, illness etc and there is some truth to it. Has anyone ever heard of Joni Erickson Tada...she became a paraplegic at a young age due to a diving accident and yes she has had to overcome many things....and yes she has down days....everyone does.... but her overall tenor of her life is positive.....practice an attitude of gratitude! And welcome to the OP you will be the perfect Villager!
