Received from a friend. I wanted to share with my UHH friends.

Life Is a
Gift

Today
before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't
speak.

Before
you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone
who has nothing to eat.

Before
you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone
who's crying out to GOD for a companion.

Today
before you complain about life - Think of someone who went
too early to heaven.

Before
whining about the distance you drive Think of someone who
walks the same distance with their feet.

And when
you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the
unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.

And when
depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on
your face and think: you're alive and still around.

Excellent advice for everyone. Each and every one sounds like it is the thoughts and philosophy of a good friend of mine. So much so that I had to copy and send them along to her. Thank you for posting.

Thanks for posting this. Good advice to remember.

As a teenager growing up in New York, one day my mother and I were traveling to Yonkers, and were waiting for a bus in Getty Square. My mother saw a man on a small platform with no legs selling pencils, and started crying. When we got on the bus I asked her why she was so upset. She told me that she saw that same man selling pencils there when she was a little girl.

To this day I think about how fortunate I am to have had such a wonderful life.
