About those bad things that almost happened

Crisis averted

We've all done it, thought it, or said it.

"I almost fell."

"Be more careful. You almost dropped that!"

"We almost crashed! We could've been killed!"

Life seems chock full of 'almosts,' and we're pretty vocal about the hazards and potentially awful outcomes of things that didn't happen. But what good does it do to harp on about the bad that could've occurred when, ultimately, it didn't?!

Frankly, it's like being 'almost' pregnant. Either you are, or you're not. There's no being 'sort of' pregnant.

So instead of complaining about all of the things that almost went wrong, perhaps we can all spend a little more time being grateful for what didn't go wrong ... along with the thousand things that went right. ❤
