“There is good in everything, if only we look for it.” — Laura Ingalls Wilder

Laura Ingalls Wilder, the renowned author of the Little House series, demonstrated a fearless attitude towards some of the harshest and inhospitable conditions on earth, such as the unforgiving soil, Indian territories, Kansas prairies, and the humid backwoods of Florida. She did not let these challenges dampen her spirit or make her cynical because she viewed them as adventures. She saw every place as an opportunity to experience something new and approach each obstacle with a positive and persevering pioneer spirit. This does not imply that she was delusional or viewed the world through rose-colored glasses. Instead, she chose to perceive situations for what they could be with hard work and a positive outlook. Conversely, some people may choose to perceive situations differently. Remembering that our perceptions of them shape good or bad events is important. There is the actual event and the story we tell ourselves about its significance.

Best of luck,
