Today, I started the day off a little different. This morning, I was awakened by my husband touching the tip of my nose to stop me from snoring. He usually does that so that I will stop snoring and he can go back to sleep. Instead, he tossed and turned for about 20 minutes. He got out of bed and I thought he was mad at me. Little did I know, he just got up and went for a run. While he was out, I tried to go back to sleep with unsuccessful results. By the time I finally drifted back to sleep, I hear Klaus, our new family dog, barking as if there's an intruder propelling himself up the stairs of our garage apartment. It was Chase. He returned.
I decided to just get up, even though I was in a bit of a sour mood. Chase didn't know it, and I had no intention of telling him. I put my aggravation aside and put the oven on to preheat so I could bake some biscuits. I turned on the Wii and we played a few worlds on The New Super Mario Bros. game. (I always complain and argue and pout when I die. I pretty much hate playing because I royally suck at playing anything with Chase.) I kept a positive attitude and we got through 3 whole worlds without me making a negative comment about my inability to play the game. We laughed, we worked together, and we had fun. What a great way to start the morning!
So, moral of the story would be: put aside your frustrations and your negative attitude. You'll never know if the opportunity that you present may change the course of someone's day, either your own, or someone else's. Stay positive and enjoy the time you have with your friends.
Thanks for reading.
Show love and keep your mouth shut!!
