Celebrate Life!!!
~~ Author Unknown ~~

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!!!
