Perspective

The thing I've learned the most through this experience is that how you deal with a life-altering event is really all a matter of persective; A few months agothe most common phrase that came out of my mouth was"Everything is a pain in the ass now." Not the best perspective on my situation, then one night a friend said something that altered how I view my new world. I was going out to a restaraunt with a couple of friends and after a slew of apologies for my slow pace, these aopologies are always greeted with a sifnificant eye roll from whatever friend it's directed at, because no one cares, except me, we got into the restaraunt and I began to maneuver around the chairs and cramped space and as she was moving a chair out of my way, my new friend said, "The world is just one big obstacle course for you now. And in that moment a light shone down on me from above and a choir of angels sang, eureka! now THAT'S the kind of attitude I want to have, yes! the world is one big obstacle course, kind of likrethose giant play sets on schoolyard playgrounds, as a result I've been looking at any particular challenge I face while moving around in my environment as a fun little game, a tire bridge to climb up and now the thing that seemed like pains are not as painful!
