I wrote something about this on another thread but after reading some comments on other posts as well, decided to make a new one in the hope that more people might read it ...

Tony, I agree.
I was going to post this thought a few days ago, it is part of what your post is saying. It’s called selecting my mood/how I feel, for tonight and tomorrow.

#1-I woke up and went right to the TV. – more people had died, more people were infected with the terrible disease, and now I am stuck in this house. I hate shopping in Publics, people are going nuts – shelves are bare. I’m going to get bored, and then I’ll eat myself to sleep.

#2-I got all I need, paper products, food, cake, (smile), my cold is 99% gone. Parcel post just delivered a Pa4x, which I bought from Don. I went through my cassette tapes from long ago –when I was doing my best music. I play my favorite type of music I had in my iPad, took a nap – then played my Pa4x, and then the Sx900. Then my wife and I sit to eat a meal that she cooked.

The saying goes: “Garbage in, garbage out – Good things in. good things out”. I believe that we have control of what enters our mind, so I selected #2. AND I HAD A GREAT DAY.

Great attitude John - many more great days are ahead!

From my perspective, every day is a good day - just some days better than others.

At 83 Everyday I wake up is a bonus day.

Graham, everyday we wake up is a good day. Everyday when I wake up, on my way to the B.R. I say --"Im still here, NICE"!

Life is good, John C

John,
Am I reading this correctly, you got yourself a PA4X?

Rikki, yes, I bought Don’s Pa4x. I am not sure why, but buying from him is always a joy. And, the dollars have been sitting here over a year, they needed a home.
My best guess is with having to stay at home I will have more toys to play with.

Rikki I have separated my music money from my house money. My music money is just for my desires – I Bernie taught me that many years ago.
Stay well, John C.

Right,John, and we both know you can't have too many toys.

Bernie

John,

You remind me a little of me.......have fun with the Pa4x.



Getting back to Tony's original post. A close friend of mine and also a member of SZ always told me "we all have our crosses to bear." Yes we all do but with this Corona Virus overwhelming the globe and the states, my cross seems suddenly ligther than it has been. Tony, very well said with your original post.
