Why Me?

I visited my aunt's ward on Sunday in CA and I really liked a thought that one of the gals shared.

She said that if we ask "Why me?" every time something challenging or sad happens in our life, we really need to ask ourselves "Why me?" each time something wonderful happens to us.

Kind of puts things in perspective, huh. And the interesting thing to me is that the challenging situations are the ones that have formed my character and taught me the most. Wouldn't it be a waste of earth life not to have any growing experiences? I didn't come to earth to just dance around and pick daisies :)

With my RA I had to learn to say "Why not me?". I like this idea too!
