How often do I focus on my problems and frustrations? When I am having a good day these same problems shrink in importance and my preoccupation with them dwindles. Wouldn’t it be better if I could find a key to unlock the “magic” of my “good days” for use on the woes of my “bad days?”

How often do I focus on my problems and frustrations? When I am having a good day these same problems shrink in importance and my preoccupation with them dwindles. Wouldn’t it be better if I could find a key to unlock the “magic” of my “good days” for use on the woes of my “bad days?”I already have the solution! Instead of trying to run away from my pain and wish my problems away, I can pray for humility!Humility will heal the pain. Humility will take me out of myself.Humility, that strength granted me by that “power greater than myself,” is mine for the asking! Humility will bring balance back into my life. Humility will allow me to accept my humanness joyously.
