I can choose every morning....

Remind yourself of the following each morning and you will be a much happier person:

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 in 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 ...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 appreciate that I have a place to call home.

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!
I choose to have a fantastic day! And you?
