Travel Secret: Keep Things in Perspective
“Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” - Abraham Lincoln
President Theodore Roosevelt and naturalist William Beebe had a ritual they would do each night on their after-dinner walks together. One of them would look at the stars and declare: “That is the spiral Galaxy of Andromeda, which is as large as our Milky Way. It is one of a hundred million galaxies and 750,000 light years away. It consists of one-hundred billion suns, each larger than our sun.” Then there was silence. Finally, one of them would say, “Now I think we are small enough. Let’s go to bed.” Keep things in perspective. Your delay or canceled flight may seem like the most important
thing in the world to you. Yet, in the big picture, it is only a small occurrence in your life. You would be a fortunate person, indeed, if all your problems involved only a delay of a few hours… make the best of it. - (taken from page 17)
