Perhaps not me as I am not coming over to your house,but what can "YOU" do to make today a good one? What can your spouse, significant other do to make today a good day? Next question, would "YOU" recognize it and appreciate it?

I went through an issue a few days ago where a person for their own reasons did not like what I said. Of course, my natural instinct was to get on the defensive, then attack. I am male afterall. Unlike me, I believe I toned my anger down, appreciated the kind things that others say and went about my business. Admittedly I was hurt and upset for several days. My intentions were good but ....

I had allowed a single comment to make me doubt myself. I had based my entire being on one comment from one person once, how ridiculous was that? I can care what others say, be polite. Try not to upset anybody, but I can not control every person's feelings, beliefs, or experiences. I must go through my day to day life living the best way I can. I had a friend who long ago had a bladder incident leaving a store.

Cool of the store to the heat outside and her bladder just let go. A man saw it happen and just decried how disgusting she was. My friend has had issues going into shops alone for years. A lot of things about this condition are beyond our control, but there are things that we can control, not perfectly sometimes, but we can always try.

The many nice words outweigh the very few unkind words. That morning Starbucks does show appreciation. Regardless of what some say, I still have value and without a doubt, so do "YOU" ms takes from you and allows "YOU" to doubt yourself. "YOU" my ms sibling are not as bad, hopeless, useless as at times "YOU" think "YOU" are.

At times it is challenging, but "YOU" must always continue to believe in yourself. If "YOU" did not believe in yourself at first, find something that "YOU will succeed in. Remember your Gringotts treasure vault, that is what it is there for. That strong memory of success, of strength, it all has a place and a purpose, and when "YOU" need it, reach in and grab it. "YOU" do not have to base your feelings upon others. Cherish yourself, praise yourself, be comfortable and happy with "YOU"

it is very important, believe in yourself you can do this disease, and wear protective underwear

The only thing that you can control are your thoughts and deeds, correct, Royce? :-D
