| I woke up early today....
excited about all that I get to do before midnight....
I have responsibilities to fulfill that are important. My job is to choose what kind of day I'll have....
Today I can complain because it is raining....
or
I can be thankful 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
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 complain because I have to go to school....
or
I can eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new knowledge!
Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped....
I am the sculptor, ready to do the shaping....
What today is like is up to me because I get to choose what kind of day I will have..........
Celebrate Life!!!
