Count your blessings.

Post by Rapunzel »

I was talking to the kids in my class today about having a positive mental attitude and how to turn a negative into a positive.

So, working on that theme, I thought we could have a thread where we count out blessings (instead of seeing them as negatives and whinging about them).

You should begin each post with either 'Thank God' or 'Thank . . . (whichever deity you give thanks to) and you can be funny or serious.

Shall I start? :) :o :wah:

Okay.

Thank God for the person who invented dishwashers. :wah:

Thank Balder for friends who support you because you need support rather than for what they can get out of it :-6

Oh that's rather harsh, Loki had his positive side too.

How about thank goodness for mothers.

When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.

So did Janus - didn't make him good.

As man can live with the dog but not the wolf, so Loki will ever be outside the pale for most of us.
