The “Get To” Philosophy

If you want to brighten up your day and just realize how great the gift of life truly is, you need to read Regina Brett’s column from this Sunday’s Plain Dealer.

The article talks about how a cancer survivor named “Frank” dealt with his cancer treatments with the use of a magic hat. What I took away from the article was “Frank’s” philosophy on life. He doesn’t say “I have to go get groceries”. Now after his bout with cancer, he realizes he “gets to pick up groceries.” Frank’s outlook on life is one we should all try to incorporate into our own day-to-day dealings with what is thrown at us. We should take some joy in the fact we “get to” deal with everything, even when it’s not particularly something we don’t want to do.
