~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 bacause 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 rejaice that I am alive. |
|
|
|
|
|
Today I can lament over all that my parents didn't give |
|
|
me |
|
|
what 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 scool or ... |
|
|
eagerly open my mind and fill it |
|
|
with rich new tidbits of knowledge. |
|
|
|
|
|
Today I can murmur dejectediy because I have to do |
|
|
housework |
|
|
or I can feel honred 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 scuiptor 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! |
