Topically radio 5 was running a phone in for ways to cheer you up. Food, drink, staying in bed were the usual suspects but the best idea was just to be grateful for what you've got.
Which got me thinking about a film I saw on ESPN over the weekend about Terry Fox. He had a leg amputated because of cancer and decided to run across Canada to raise money for research into the disease. Read about him here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Fox
Be warned, it doesn't have a happy ending. But on this allegedly grey day it's inspiring & humbling. A bit of perspective is the greatest pick up.
