It has come to my attention while perusing through FB each day that there are alot of people out there that need to learn about appreciation and thankfullness. Status after status is about how much the husband or kids annoy you and family situations that you can't deal with. Let me start off by saying that this kind of stuff should not be aired on FB. How would you feel if your husband or even your kids wrote something everyday about what you had done that embarassed/annoyed them? How would you feel if that status was turned around to portray your negative flaws each day?
Be thankful for the husband that loves you unconditionally, the kids that you were BLESSED with and the job that you have that keeps a roof over your head and allows for the luxuries of life. Take pleasure and appreciate the little things that family/friends and work gives you.The simple things like a smile from your husband or a little pair of arms wrapping around your leg giving you a hug, a boss that says 'nice job' and a family that does not judge you for the mistakes that you make. What if one or all of these things that annoy you were taken away...would they really seem that annoying if you look back....how would you feel? Appreciate the little things in life and the little moments that you are blessed to have.
I know that there are days where I am frustrated with my day, the weather, the kids or family situations, but have a filter when it comes to airing your family situations or annoyances to the public. A negative attitude just keeps you negative and attracts negative attention. Your life can't be that negative all the time can it? Really?
AMEN, Jen! Well said.
