Things Could Be Better and They Will (cont’d)

In a previous “thought” (5/31) we looked at a homeless person with a sign that read “things could be worse, you could be me”. What if the sign read “things could be worse, or you could help me”? Sometimes our struggles cause us to withdraw into ourselves and get down. The surest cure is to get outside ourselves and reach out to another. At first this may only serve as a distraction from our worries, but eventually it becomes a good habit.
