I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill1 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 fell sad that I don't have more money or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste.
 
Today I can grumble2 about my health or I can rejoice that I am alive.
 
Today I can lament3 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 embark4 upon a quest to discover new relationships.
 
Today I can murmur5 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 sculptor6 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!
