I agree for the most part, but you cannot possibly be happy if you drop your keys down the kitchen sink drain and then accidentally turn on the disposal instead of the light. I'm a Homer, and, I think, too far along to become a Flanders. My hat's off to the Flanders of the world, dab-gum-it!

>Life is a challenge and how you respond to is very important. Look for the good and you will find it. Forget the bad. To dwell on negativity saps your energy and life.

>When I am confronted with a problem I like to dismiss chaos and define the problem. Then I will set forward with a course of action. If my result does not solve the problem then I will begin from a new starting point. This is not always easy but at least I have found that it is worth the effort.
