Second is watched an old Twilight episode (the TV kind in B&W). A classic Sci Fi of time travel back to the past (to a better time) only to find out two things. Things weren’t better back then, and you are always on the outside looking in. Living in the future might be the same just turned on its head. There is only one place you can live.

I got a Christmas card with that quote on it, and I used that card as a bookmark in my journal for 3 years. I memorized it, and whenever I found myself some place in life where I really did not want to be, I played it over & over in my mind. And each night when I wrote in my journal I would think about those words. It helped me many times to stay grateful, and direct my focus onto whatever opportunities I might have been overlooking (rather than insisting there WERE NO opportunities in that season)

Funny thing is I thought I had lost that card (It wasn’t lost- just shuffled in with some other papers) Then a year or two later, I received a new copy of the exact same Christmas card.. So needless to say, I found the first card, now I have two copies, and either way it doesn’t really matter since I have it memorized and I have the lesson stored up from all those times I reflected on it lol.
