i was super bitter this afternoon.
my car broke down & i was just so annoyed.
i got a little sad about it, and then i got cranky.
i was cranky that one more expensive/annoying thing was now on my plate.
*as if didn't have enough of those things already.
i pouted for a while.
i felt sorry for myself...
and my crummy mood just accentuated my messy house & mile-long todo list.
at some point though, i knew that i could:
a. wallow in all the negativity & problems
b. seek beauty & focus on the happy
right off, i noticed:
♥our first sunflower of the season had bloomed
♥the quail hatched some more eggs {we are getting about a dozen/day!}
♥the sun was shining
those three things encouraged me to find a better attitude.
life is not perfect.
i will probably never be rich, but i am so richly blessed with family&love.
cars will break down.
things will go wrong.
trials will {and do!} come.
...but the important thing to remember
is that there is beauty all around me,
{when i decide} to look for it.
