I'm glad! It sounds really corny, but someone once told me "The only thing you can choose in life is your attitude."

Sometimes it felt like I'd never get a break, things wouldn't get better. But I tried to tell myself "Every occurrence in life is a numbers game. Against tiny odds, eventually enough attempts statistically OUGHT to pay off."

And the alternative is bleak, sort of sulking in this pit of despair without hope for tomorrow.
