Perspective.

We met with an adoption lawyer last week and he said something that really put my life into perspective. We were talking about some of the birthmothers and how there lives are often in chaos or at least very unstable. He said something like:

"Our lives are very stable, we know that we are going to go home
to our houses, we know that we have a bed to sleep in, we know
that we are going to eat dinner. We may not know what we are
going to eat but at least we know we are going to eat."

He's very right. So I thought what the hell do I have to complain about. Poor me I'm tired and I don't have enough money to take another vacation. It's not that I'm a sad sack but sometimes I do feel like there is just not enough time in the day and I'm never going to get enough sleep. Yes, these are problems and they do impact my life but I'm going to try and act like that little self help book says "Don't Sweat The Small Stuff."

Have a peaceful day.
