Hello Ms J~, Nope.. not reading New Earth (yet). I live my yo-yo. Earlier I was feeling good, now I'm feeling not so positive.
Taking things for granted is a given, we all have so much. Maybe the ones who complain the most have lost the least. What point of comparison do you have but your own?
My brother suggested I make a gratitude list, something I've occasionally done. Today might be a good time to do it again!
