Is a flower at a funeral as beautiful as a flower in a wedding bouquet? Aren't traffic jams more frustrating when you're late for work? Do you notice the beauty of a bee pollinating a flower or are you more worried about being stung? Is the rainbow worth the storm?
There is an old saying - Life is what you make it. But it's also how you look at it. Every situation you encounter gives you the opportunity to look at it from a variety of perspectives. You can see the down side....or you can search for the upside. It may be harder to find, but it's always there. It's a lesson that I have to be reminded of sometimes.
So on a day that I'm missing the boys, I decided to look at it from another perspective. They're having a great time, learning lots and enjoying new experiences. What more could I ask for?
