Don't imagine you are in a worse place than you actually are. Things could have been far worse. So, seize the day, count your blessings and move on.

Compartmentalize your problems; put them in different buckets and project-manage them separately.

But, unfailingly, every crisis leaves you stronger, wiser – and happy! ~ AVIS Viswanathan

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen. ~ Reinhold Niebuhr
