ATTITUDE




                                    
         
        
        



<p>

I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight.<br><br>



                         I have responsibilities to fulfill today.<br><br>



                                    I am important.<br><br>



                My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have.<br><br>



                   Today I can complain because the weather is rainy<br><br>



              or I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.<br><br>



                   Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money <br><br>



   or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide<br>

                                 me away from waste.<br><br>



           Today I can grumble about my health or I can rejoice that I am alive.<br><br>



               Today I can lament over all that my parents didn't give me<br><br>



      when I was growing up or I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born.<br><br>



                      Today I can cry because roses have thorns<br><br>



                       or I can celebrate that thorns have roses.<br><br>



                         Today I can mourn my lack of friends<br><br>



                        or I can excitedly embark upon a quest<br><br>



                            to discover new relationships.<br><br>



                    Today I can whine because I have to go to work<br><br>



                    or I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.<br><br>



            Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework<br><br>



                or I can feel honored because God has provided shelter<br><br>



                             for my mind, body and soul.<br><br>



                  Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped.<br><br>



                And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping.<br><br>



                          What today will be like is up to me.<br><br>



                      I get to choose what kind of day I will have!
