A great day .......


Today...
I woke up early, excited over all that I get to do before the clock strikes midnight... the responsibilities to fulfill. 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 money or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my expenses wisely and guide me away from waste.

Today....
I can grumble about my health or I can rejoice that I am alive.

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 mourn 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 murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or I can feel honored because God has provided shelther 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 get to choose what kind of day I will have.....
