Had a crazy day yesterday. I broke my arm in the morning, then I got back from the E.R. and I found my dog writhing in pain. I scooped him up and took him to the vet. They told me he had a brain tumor that was causing him severe nerve pain. I made the decision to put him down.

Then I got home and told the kids what happened. They cried and i held them. The whole time i just thanked God for everything that was happening that day. And I felt calm all day.

I was genuinely grateful to god for the broken arm because it could have been much worse. Thankful for the years we had with our dog.

Thankful I was able to comfort our children. It was honestly a beautiful experience.

Life is simply better when you trust God and his plan for you.

Heal up well and quick, Sir. Sorry to hear about your doggo. A pet portrait in pencil crayon could be a nice memorial for your dog, I can suggest the artist of these drawings. https://blossom.primal.net/d3644ede863b786f73ad6dddb2e76858bc6943588f37d8baa07da36582e4e9f0.jpg

Heart wrenching and beautiful to read. It’s ah-mazing how God shows up when one carries a grateful heart. I can only imagine the next round of blessings on the other side of these grateful lessons. Thanks for your example of alchemy. https://blossom.primal.net/3ca7e17ede332350f1a800d129ee114c5116...

Damn that is a hell of a day. Love your perspective. On dark days I always tell myself to appreciate the contrast that life is giving me. It’s what makes the good times so great.

It's your own merit, it's all in your experience, your ability to emphasize, and embrace difficulty. Some call it emotional intelligence, but you can call it God, if you want.

Been thinking about this post a couple times since yesterday. Fucking awesome attitude and mindset. Most would dig themselves in a hole of negativity.

Instead of complaining, you started to think and realized that you have so much to be thankful for. It’s a completely different way of living life. This view makes it easier to deal with hardship and still be positive and grateful. These are the people who, from a distance, are seen as strong. The...

Always amazed how quickly my children accept this news. It’s upsetting, sure, but they move forward. You’re a good father. Hope you heal quickly and glad the arm thing wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
