“We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or REJOICE because thorn bushes have roses.”-Abe Lincoln
Friends, for crying out loud let’s REJOICE! We’re alive!!!
If you’re struggling with emotional downs or having a hard time realizing desired happiness, then take a moment and internalize the words of the famous Og Mandino:
If I feel depressed I will sing.
If I feel sad I will laugh.
If I feel ill I will double my labor.
If I feel fear I will plunge ahead.
If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice.
If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come.
If I feel incompetent I will think of past success.
If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.
Today I will be the master of my emotions.
May we master our emotions TODAY. Let’s rejoice more and complain less. Let’s lift up our chins and be positive. We need to open our eyes and see the beauty all around us. When we see beauty for beauty we forget what is bad.
God bless you on your journey to be happy and serve!
