Bad = Good in Disguise

I thought there'd never be a blog post today, but here it is, and today, I start with a paraphrase, because I can't be aresd to quote directly. It's Maureen Johnson, she's awesome, she won't mind.

"Whenever something bad happens, it's not really bad, it's just something good happening in an unexpected way. Your boiler stopped working? Now you have a greater understanding of those who always live without hot water. You splashed coffee in your eye? Now that eye is super awake and can see through walls."

Yes, she did say all of that. In several different tweets.

I like the idea that all bad things are just unexpected good things, and I guess it's right. Even the most devastating things are good in at least one aspect. They have to be, otherwise we just wouldn't survive any of it.
That's it for now. I'm half way through writing another post that I may or may not post tonight. Either way, DFTBA.
