'Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it.' — Dennis P. Kimbro
I think that this is a wonderful quote. Most of the time we take things for granted but if we open our eyes to the world around us it is much more exciting that we think. There has been studies done which show, if you ask someone who has had a very serious brain injury and is reduced to a wheelchair, dribbling all day and needing someone to feed them and toilet them they think of their life, almost all of them will say, they have a wonderful life. Perhaps this is because they are seeing the world with new eyes and although something bad has happened to them, they are making the most of the situation.
