Life Is What You Make It!

Life is most definitely what you make it. Do you wake each morning with a good attitude? Do you make up your mind that today will be a great day? I have a very dear friend that I talk to every morning while she is driving to work. Every day she says " This is not going to be a good day!" Someone may have cut her off or maybe they were not driving fast enough or sometimes someone was driving too fast. She can not remember if she shut her garage door, so she has to turn around and drive back to see. ( The garage is always closed when she checks) She works herself into a tizzy over nothing. This is just the way she is. I do love her dearly, but I can promise you that she creates her own misery.

What if she woke up each day and said to herself "Today is going to be a great day!" What if she took a moment to hear the birds singing? What if she noticed how green the grass is or the beauty of the flowers? I believe her day would be far brighter!

I love my mornings just sitting on my back porch. There are so many beautiful sights right here in my own backyard. The flowers are beautiful and the grass is green. I love the sounds of the birds singing their songs. I love the sound of the water falling in my fountain. Learning to enjoy these simple pleasures brings me a sense of inner peace. I know in my heart that each day will be another awesome beautiful day. And guess what? It almost always is!!!

Please, as you go through your day, take the time to enjoy the beauty around you! Have a beautiful day!
