Count Your Blessings Instead Of Your Wishes
Isn’t it just funny how when times are tough people get tough and what I mean by that is mean! They get so stressed they just get mean and tough! I use to be that way but than I started to come across a simple, yet beautiful statement. Actually its not simple if you really dissect it, it’s probably the most powerful thing I have heard and I apply it every single day! This statement is “Count your blessings, not your wishes.” Wow!!! What a beautiful statement that is! During theses tough, rough, hard, stressful times we can’t look over at our neighbors new BMW, or see that girl with that new Michael Kors handbag, or look over and see this stay at home mom living the dream, we have to focus on what we are blessed with already and that I promise you can make a difference!!! I feel blessed to be living first of all! I feel blessed to have a car that runs! I feel blessed to have a wonderful job where I can mentor two sweet little girls and help them grow and live life! I feel blessed to be marrying my best friend! I feel blessed to have a roof over my head and food to eat! I just don’t see how I could possibly want more!! If as a society that is so filled with the “new” why don’t as a society we look at the “old” and make it feel new by our attitude and how we look at it! We can apply this everywhere, every day and maybe, just maybe we can than start being happy instead of mean people theses days!! You may be in a rough situation and not be in control of your income but you are sure as heck are in control of the outcome you choose to make to live your life!!! Blessings! xo -Sara
