"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...It's about learning to dance in the rain."  
For the storms that will sooner or later move into your life, one of the ways to learn to dance is the rain is to do the following:
Be thankful for what didn’t happen
Practice forgiveness and let go of resentment
Make gratitude a habit, express it and pass it on to others

“Become a possibilitarian. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities — always see them, for they're always there." -- Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
