Tanner that is beautiful, thank you.  I am actually going to copy that and share it with my daughter who is going through a tough time in her life, as well as worrying about her mom.

Cheddy, I'm going to remember that phrase. "We live on a planet that does that!" 

That's not just a positive attitude, that's a joyful attitude!

Tanner, I just have to say again how much I love your attitude.  I get sluggish sometimes, but I really do appreciated being alive, and when I say I like it here, I mean being alive on this planet.  I walked out of a restaurant the other day to see a rainbow arching above.  My neurobiologist companion put his hands in the air and said excitedly,  "We live on a planet that does that!"  I was hiking in Zion National Park in November.  It's like another planet and it's on this planet!  We have water and trees, deserts and rainforests, oceans and continents.  I mean, this place rocks!  Of course we survive.

I'm really glad you are so good at it.  You're a good guest.

Cheddy

One way of looking at things: 

 

This being human is a guest house.

Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
Meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.

Be grateful for whatever comes.
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond. 

(Rumi)
