How this day turns out depends,
in part, on how it begins. Begin your day with an attitude of joyful
anticipation, and you reap the reward of your own state of mind.
Begin it with disgust or
reluctance, and your state of mind will pursue you as the hours unfold.
You set the tone of your day by the way you welcome it.
Each day is a gift of God to us,
but sometimes the gift comes wrapped in sombre colours. We may make up
with pain, or with the knowledge that we face a difficult or disagreeable task.
Trusting that god is with us can
give us the courage we need. Looking forward to something pleasant can lessen
the difficulties we have to face. Learning to believe in ourselves can calm the
fears we feel.
However we choose to begin this
day, we do have the power to determine, to some extent, what this day will be
like. |
