NJL's Be Grateful PSA

Sign in to disble this ad
You know guys with the messed up economy and stuff, a lot of people are going through a tough time, some a complete mess.

Having said that, most of us should be grateful for something or another, if not everything...

I was reminded that one of my close friends in San Antonio (owner of Krazy Kat Music) was broken into over the weekend. They stole 24+ guitars with in about 3 minutes (PD got there 3 mins after the alarm went off) - and I thought I was having a bad morning!

Get it? No matter how bad of a day you're having, someone is having a more crappy day, perhaps week, month or even the whole year went to sh##.

I'm reminded by this every time my boxing coach (who's also my best friend) notices anyone is having a "bad day" - he's the GM of a funeral home/cemetary/crematory - he's constantly seeing bad days from others and makes his life somewhat a constant good day because of this.

Let us all be happy for what we have...
and for those of you that are truly having a bad time (you on this board know who you are) - we're all here for you.

+1 good thoughts!

I look at the mid east wars, the homeless in my town, the losses in life people experience everyday, and the physical chronic pain and depression people live with... and realize how lucky we are to be able to argue over neos, boutiques, true bypass and the like.


thoughts become reality

keep it positive!

Thanks for the support network friend. Sorry to hear about your friend. I hope he was insured and can get back and going. Well wishes to you and yours too.
