10. “to remind myself to begin each day with gratitude for what is rather than worrying so much about what still might be.  … Instead of mourning the passage of time, I want to live with a sense of abundance in the here and now, knowing that what we have is exactly enough.  Instead of wishing that my sons could be somehow other than they are, I want to remind myself to see, every day, what is already good in each of them and to love that.”  Katrina Kenison, The Gift of an Ordinary Day
