Instead of asking for more, I now pray for the eyes to see the blessings already in my lap. For the wisdom to appreciate what I have while I have it. I've learned to value things you can't put a price tag on. Like peace, serenity, quiet success, good health, and a sound mind.
If it takes the entire day to wait for the machine to get fixed again, WAIT. This one day dictates the next 6 years of our lives and frankly, even the years after.
