I just thought this might be a good thread to express those ideas and things which we can give thanks for that may be easier to say than to do...

For example:

Dr. Leo Buscaglia, one of my favorite speakers from the 1970s told a story in his famous and wonderful presentation "Talk about Love."

There was once a man driving his car along one of the narrow mountain roads in California and he came to a narrow place in the road leading to a blind hairpin turn.

Just when he was about to go around the bend, a woman in a sports car came around the corner rolled down her window and yelled "PIG!"

He got so angry, he rolled down the window and shook his fist yelling back, "SOW, SOW."

Then he jammed the car in gear stomped on the accelerator, rounded the curb and ...

hit a PIG!.


Boy, is it hard for us, as humans to believe that, at least some people, really want to help us. Maybe I need to work harder at believing that the other person's intent was to help me...
