IT'S ALL ABOUT ATTITUDE (Author Unknown) 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 the grass is getting watered for free. Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or... I can be glad 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 my parents didn't give me when I was Growing up or... I can feel grateful 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 tidbits of Knowledge. Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or... I can feel honored because God has provided shelter for my mind, body And soul. I get to play a big part into what kind of day I will have!

Love your little insert on "attitude" ..So right we can choose our way of responding..There is either the positive way or the negative way.. How we react or respond will have some influence on how our day unrolls.;)

So true. And to think our Attitude really displays to others who we really are.

Yes, indeed..but if we have the "attitude" of "charity at all times" ..even the bad attitudes of others will be approached differently;)

Thats a great way to look at it. I was always told that your attitude is very important. And a positive attitude is the best thing to have.

This is a good reminder of how we need to watch our attitudes! When I get really negative, that's when I have to start thanking God for all that I have and focus on that instead of what I think I want or need. Thanks for the great reminder!

Always good to have a good attitude. Doing so is often what keeps me sane even in times when I'm sad, broke, angry, or just in a bad situation in general.
