The Sculptor's Attitude


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 that the grass is gettting watered for free.

Today I can feel sad that I don't have any 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 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 tidbts of knowledge.

Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework,
or I can feel honored because the Lord has provided shelter for my mind,
body and soul

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!

Have a GREAT DAY! unless you have other plans.
