================================
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 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 go to.
Today I can complain because I have to go to school, OR... Eagerly open my mind and fill it with new tidbits of knowledge.
Today I can murmur dejectedly (沮丧的) 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 get to choose what kind of day I will have!
Have a GREAT DAY my friend
OR...
maybe you have other plans.
