I was pondering over what my blogger friend, Violet wrote about how we chose to view events that took place in our lives. Sometimes, I tend to feel weary, irritated and negative about daily events. These lousy thoughts do take a toll on my emotions which worsen when I feel overwhelmed.
Amidst these thoughts, I would be reminded to count my blessings...
• instead of getting upset with a toddler who demands my attention, I should be glad that he is healthy, happy, active and smart.
• instead of complaining about the heat today, I should be thankful that I'm sitting in an air-con room, that I don't have to work on the construction site.
• instead of focusing on the negatives, it feels calmer to think positive.
So it's about about choice... choosing the right views, thoughts and actions. What's yours?
