Something to make ya feel good

This came to me in an email today. Your attitude about any part of your life can affect you positively or negatively, it's all in how you decide to feel about that part of your life. You can let it drag you down and keep you from doing what you want to do, or you can say to hell with it, it is what it is, and I'm going to do what I want in spite of it. I think I prefer to see it positively, and see how many others I can infect with that attitude.

Attitude

There once was a woman, who woke up one morning,
looked in the mirror,
And noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today?"
So she did
And
She
had
A
Wonderful
Day.

The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror
And saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
"H-M-M," she said,
"I think I'll part my hair down the middle today?"
So she did
And
She
had
A
Grand
Day.

The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.
"Well," she said,
"today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail."
So she did
And
She
had
A
Fun,
Fun
Day.

The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on
Her head
"YEA!" she exclaimed,
"I don't have to fix my hair today!"

Attitude is everything.
Be kinder than necessary,
For everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly.......
Leave the rest to God (or whatever higher power in which you believe)
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.

Dancing in the rain. How fun is that? :)
