People who have things going well are the ones who post positive stuff on social media, and trust me, I see plenty of negative stuff.
But when you feel good, you tend to be more positive, but I wonder how they feel when things are not going their way?
Do they remain positive and upbeat?
Only if you have an attitude of gratitude all the time, can you be somewhat positive most of the time.
What is gratitude?
Gratitude is the quality of being thankful and thankful is being pleased and relieved.
I can sit here and type about all the things that are not good in my life, all the things that make me upset, all the things that I wish were different, and I can promise you there are many things that could and do bring me down.
But I try, I try to stay focused on what is good.
I woke up this morning relatively happy.
I have a beautiful wife who makes my life more fulfilled.
I have a son who came to work with me and I get to spend time with him.
I got to kiss my daughter goodbye as she was preparing for eLearning.
My son was hungry, and I had the money to go and get him donuts at the local grocery store and see him smile.
I came to work at a place I love at a job I love.
I have interacted with the future of America multiple times today.
I got to speak to a wonderful co-worker of mine and her young son.
And I believe in loving God who sent His son to die for my sins giving me eternal hope.
And that is all by 8:13 AM.
