After seeing this, it is hard to wallow in self pity over burning my pinkie on a melted marshmallow when when I was twelve and suffering a little blister. If you want to enjoy the luxury of whining, making excuses, and wallowing in self-pity, don't watch this:

    I don't go to youtube for reasons to be thankful.

    I look at KimW and Ken Strong. I talk to a friend who goes to work every day while fighting stage 4 cancer and keeps a smile and a positive attitude every single day.

    Puts my little grievances into perspective really fast.

      Same here Kay. I also remember when my wife was fighting cancer.
      Right up to the day she died she was 100% positive.
      She never felt sorry for herself or felt any self pity.
      That really put the trivial stuff in my life in perspective.

        My father was the same way when he was dying of leukemia. Never whined. Was jovial and even entertained guests right to the end.

            True. If you ever feel like whining over minor problems, just Google "Henri Landwirth." He's one guy who knows about making lemonade out of lemons and his story will wise you up pretty fast.

      Of course. I was being facetious. You're totally right. There are people with real hardships on this forum, I know, and I didn't mean to imply otherwise or downplay it.

      This is officially the goofiest thread I ever started. Also, I fibbed. I never burned my pinkie on a marshmallow. I came up with that for effect. Now I am just beholding goofiness of my doing that I'll leave behind me now.
