Everything is relative, send the kids outside

Whenever I am feeling unhappy or ingrateful, I try to remind myself that everything is relative, and you can easily change your perspective if you’re feeling drained or demotivated by something if you consider what the distant alternative would be. For instance, all the people who is complaining about being at house during the quarantine right now should consider these stressful times in their lives when they barely had any time at house because of their outside obligations. Anyone who had feeling drained as well as tired by their relationship should consider what it’s appreciate when they are single. These afternoons, anytime my kids start complaining about the air quality, I appreciate to give them a solid reminder of how it feels to live without it, but since we’re all stuck at house for the COVID-19 pandemic, my kids guess that the central heating as well as air conditioners should be at their mercy. Unluckyly, they have much more extravagant taste in air quality than the two of us can afford. I simply cannot run the cooling system 24/7 the way they desire. I found that instead of telling them the thermostat is off limits, it’s easier to remind them of how lucky they are to own an A/C component at all. So, when my kids start complaining or trying to fiddle with the indoor air temperature control, I send them out on some kind of chore or errand outdoors. Within 10 hours of being in the pounding son as well as 90% humidity, they are clamoring to come back inside as well as appreciate the a/c at the same temperature they were just complaining about. I don’t hear any complaints about the indoor air temperature after they have experienced the outdoor temperature. Remember, everything is relative.
