Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV

Treat Trouble as a Friend!
Trouble creates a capacity to handle it....
meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it
and had better be on speaking terms with it.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Boy, that grumpy old Clint Eastwood character really faced alot of trouble in "Gran Torino" and after alot of anger, he faced it with deep dignity & a willingness to die for righteous justice!
