It's so easy to be miserable

By
Managing Real Estate Broker

Thank you  

Today thank God and decide not to complain about anything. Ask Him to show you anytime you are getting ready to complain, and to help you hold your tongue.

Today give thanks for what you have without looking at what you don’t have.

Today, be grateful. Be grateful for your favorite music, for movies that make you feel good, for your phone that connects you with people, for your computer, and for the electricity that lights up your life. Be grateful for air travel that flies you everywhere. Be grateful for the roads and traffic lights that keep the traffic in order. Be grateful to those who built our bridges. Be grateful for your pet, for your child, for your loved ones, for your eyes that enable you to read this. Be grateful for your imagination. Be grateful that you can think. Be grateful that you can speak. Be grateful that you can laugh and smile. Be grateful that you can breathe. Be grateful that you are alive! Be grateful that you are You!


Be grateful that there are two words that can change your life.


Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Just a side note that came to mind after reading this: Adam & Eve didn't have most of these things, but did you ever wonder what language they spoke, or did they use sign language?

I work very hard each and everyday, to not be around those that are always miserable and negative. It takes much to much energy.

Very good post to read today.  Yes, it's easy to forget the things that make our lives pleasurable.
