MDJunction to me

grandmasylvia"MDJ has been "a soft place to fall" for me as Dr Phil says. I have this very painful rare disease Dercum's Disease and take comfort in finding others here who share their knowledge and compassion. Many
members have helped me just by understanding my anguish and validating
my pain. We are working together to encourage research toward a cure.

1. Today you are healthy

We are so used to being healthy that we forget how good being healthy is. Sometimes we need to be sick to appreciate the blessing of being healthy.

2. Today you have someone who loves you

Being lonely is terrible. Today, if you have someone who loves you, you have something more valuable than wealth.

3. Today you have opportunity to love

Not only do you have someone who loves you, today you also have the opportunity to love them – and other people – back.

4. Today you have good meals to eatIf you can eat a good meal today, just remember that many people can’t. Many people struggle to eat even once a day.

5. Today you have a job

Many people are jobless. If you aren’t, you have a reason to be excited about your work.

6. Today you live in peaceI just can’t imagine living in the midst of war. Fear and terror will always haunt me. I could lose the people I love anytime. I could even lose my life.

7. Today you have clean air to breatheYou don’t have to wear a mask, do you? Many people in the world must. In some parts of the world the air quality is so bad people can no longer breathe freely.

8. Today you are safe

You can go to the places you want without worrying that something bad will happen to you. That’s something to be grateful for.

9. Today you have opportunity to give

Giving is among the best ways to increase your happiness and today you have the opportunity to give.

10. Today is a new day

Forget the past. Forget yesterday. Today you have the opportunity to begin anew.
