Comparison is the thief of joy.

Was this from a t-shirt? I had a t-shirt as a teen - 35 yrs ago - that said "Beware the thief of dreams." This reminded me of that...

The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea. - Karen Blixen (as Isak Dinesen)

My former massage clinic had a beautiful tapestry with this saying on it. Except they missed the colon after water and it drove me nuts. If Iā€™d ever had a sharpie on me I would have fixed it.

ā€œThatā€™s not fair!ā€ - me, age 4

ā€œLife isnā€™t fairā€ - My mom

Same in my household. I heard it so much that any time someone says something isnā€™t fair I have to stop myself from automatically responding that life isnā€™t fair.

I do find it strange that otherwise intelligent adults think the world owes them or that they donā€™t ā€œdeserveā€ bad things. I think having life isnā€™t fair dinged into me at a young age made me a more well adjusted adult!

Youā€™ll never hear me whine about something not being fair. To me thatā€™s something children say.
