The single life

This talk is specifically directed towards single parents, however I think that there are aspects from this talk that are perfectly applicable to all of us.

The text can be found here. 

I think this applies to us all- Your perspective and view of life will change when, rather than being cast down, you look up.

Many of you have already discovered the great, transforming truth that when you live to lift the burdens of others, your own burdens become lighter. Although circumstances may not have changed, your attitude has. You are able to face your own trials with greater acceptance, a more understanding heart, and deeper gratitude for what you have, rather than pining for what you yet lack.
