I woke up early today, excited over all
I get to do before the day ends. I have
responsibilities to fulfill 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 grumble about my health or...
I can rejoice that I am alive.
Today I can mourn my lack of friends or...
I can excitedly embark upon a
quest to discover new relationships.
Today I can whine because I have to go to work or...
I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.
Today I can murmur dejectedly because
I have to do housework or...
I can feel honored because
Life has provided shelter for
my mind, body and soul
Today stretches ahead of me,
waiting to be shaped.
And here I am, the sculptor
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!
