Seeing the Cup Half Full
A colleague came in to our office the other day all bouncy, smiling and just really happy. She told us what a great day it was. "It's spring, it's beautiful out and I won a free copy in roll up the rim to win", she said. I was grumbling because the time change cost me an hour's sleep, the sun was in my eyes on my drive in and I only won a coffee not a car. Boy did I feel ungrateful not appreciating having all the same benefits that were making my work mate so happy.
So I'm going to try to be more grateful for what I have. I'm blessed with a wonderful husband, 7 awesome kids, a job that I love and a big goofy loveable golden retriever named Wilson. Oh, and thankful that it's spring and that daylight savings mean Wilson and I can walk after work in daylight.
What are you thankful for?

Thank you for giving us a better perspective! We all have challenges in our daily lives, and sometimes they do obscure the beautiful things we DO have!
