I WAS THINKING…
about the devasting fire. Actually, it’s painful to even think about it. I find it hard to believe that Pacific Palisades, an upscale community, is almost no more. I live close enough that I was without electricity for two days. I certainly didn’t complain when I thought what so many others were going through. Come to think about it, I don’t think I’ll ever complain again.

If you don’t get everything you want, think of the things you don’t get that you don’t want.
Tell a man he is brave, and you help him to become so.

THIS I’VE LEARNED
A way to record the good things that happened to you during this coming year is to start with an empty jar. Each week, add a note with a good thing that happened during that week. On New Year’s Eve, open it and read about the amazing year you had. Think about it!
