Are You One Of Us - Or One Of Them?

Spending three days in the constant presence of ill people certainly can affect you - if you let it!

All of the patients I have ever met in hospitals fall into two categories:

- Those who are ill who talk about getting better.

- Those who are ill who want to tell everyone how ill they are.

Unfortunately - most of the people you meet in hospital tend to love to tell you in the greatest detail why they are particularly worse off than most people.

In the bed next to Lesley there was a lady who, even though she wasn't particularly worse off than other patients, felt the need to tell Lesley in graphic detail why she genuinely believed that she the sickest and unluckiest person in the world.

She seemed to absolutely revel in it!

The sad thing is that these two types of people are mirrored in normal life :

- Those people who constantly talk about opportunity, and making the most of life.

- Those people who constantly talk about failure, and how badly life treats them.

Which one are YOU?
