I am generally an upbeat and positive guy. I always try to make the best of every situation and try not to let circumstances get me down. I am human like everybody else and have my bad days. Today is one of those days that I really wish I was retired, had all of our selling and moving behind us, and was free to spend all the time I want with my wife, kids, and grandkids.
I don't want to deal with bosses, clients, disgruntled coworkers, or commuting anymore. I am ready to write, read, volunteer, learn to play guitar, or pick up other new hobbies and stay healthy and active doing what I want to do and nothing that I do not want to do. Doesn't that sound great?
But I am here at work right now. It is time to pull myself together and let my light shine. I have a responsibility to let others observe my work ethic and see Christ in me. I give him thanks for all things, including my job, the home he has blessed me with, and the family that I love so dearly. When I am struggling with my attitude, all I need to do is count my many blessings and that is sufficient to lift me up!
