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 getting watered for free.
Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or I can be glad that my fnances 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 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!
清晨，我早早醒來，為自己在午夜的鍾聲敲響前將要做的一切激動不已。我有責任讓今天過得充實，我很重要。
選擇如何度過每一個日子，這是我的工作。
今天下雨了，所以我可以抱怨；但是，草地無須花費力氣去澆灌了，所以我還可以感激。
今天沒有足夠的錢了，所以我可以難過；但這也使我懂得理性消費，引導我遠離浪費，所以我也可以欣喜。
今天為自己的健康問題，我可以滿腹牢騷；但自己仍然活著，所以我可以歡呼雀躍。
