Imagine for a moment one of those nights when you just can’t fall asleep and you have to get up early the next morning for a very important meeting of which you are the keynote speaker. Your alarm clock goes off early in the morning, waking you from what little sleep you had. You stumble out of bed, have a quick shower, grab a coffee and some toast, and off to fight the traffic on the way to work.
Does that sound like the start of a terrible day? Most would answer “yes”. Few people, however, would answer “no”. There are the people who are, in my opinion, blessed with a gift. A gift that determines how they view their life. These people live with “an attitude of gratitude”. For them, the situation described could be worse. Much worse. For example, think of the man who doesn’t have a bed, let alone a roof over his head. When he is awoken from what little sleep he is able to get, it is by the train falling on his cold body. He stumbles to his feet and begins his journey to work in his bare feet. His work is in the field of survival. He searches through garbage cans for scraps of half-rotten food to eat and odd bits of clothes to keep him warm.
The purpose of this example is to show that we all have so much to be grateful for. Even in times when it seems that nothing could be worse, there is always a reason to be grateful. And when you feel a sense of gratitude, you feel a sense of happiness and content. My challenge to you today is to learn to look for the good in every situation and live with “an attitude of gratitude”.
