I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes
midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am important. My
job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have. Today I can complain
because the weather is rainy or I can be thankful that the grass is getting
watered for free. Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or I
can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and
guide me away from waste. Today I can lament over all that my parents
didn't give me when I was growing up or I can feel grateful that they
allowed me to be born. Today I can cry because roses have thorns or I can
celebrate that thorns have roses. Today I can morn my lack of friends or I
can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover new relationships. Today I
can whine because I have to go to work or I can shout for joy because I have
a job to do. Today I can complain because I have to got o school or eagerly
open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge. Today I can
murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or I can feel honored
because the Lord has provided shelter for my mind, body and soul. Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped. And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping. What today will be like is up to me. I'll choose what kind of day I shall have! Have a GREAT DAY...unless you have better plans. |
