I hope you will not mind if i share it with you.TODAYI woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikesmidnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am important. Myjob 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 thatthe grass is getting watered for free.Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or I can be glad that myfinances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away fromwaste.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 wasgrowing 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 thornshave roses.Today I can mourn my lack of friends or I can excitedly embark upon a questto discover new relationships.Today I can whine because I have to go to work or I can shout for joybecause I have a job to do.Today I can complain because I have to go to school or eagerly open my mindand fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge.Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or I can feelhonored 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, thesculptor who gets to do the shaping.What today will be like is up to me. I get to choose what kind of day Iwill have!Have a great day...Unless you have other plans.Love...
