“Your living is determined 
 not so much by what life brings to you
 as by the attitude you bring to life; 
 not so much by what happens to you
 as by the way your mind 
 looks at what happens.”
~  Kahlil Gibran 








A Change Of Attitude


The story is told of a woman 
who during the war went to live 
with her husband in camp 
on the Mojave Desert. 
She simply hated the place;
 the heat was almost unbearable, 
125 degrees in the shade, 
the wind blew incessantly, 
and there was sand - sand everywhere.


Finally, in desperation she wrote her parents
 in Ohio that she couldn't stand it 
another minute and was coming home.


Quickly came the reply by airmail 
from her father - 
just the two familiar lines:


"Two men looked out from prison bars... one saw the mud, the other saw stars."


The daughter did some real thinking, 
not only with the intellect 
but also with her heart. 
She decided to stick to her post.


She made friends with the natives, 
learned to love the country, 
and eventually wrote a book about it.


The desert hadn't changed, 
but her attitude had. 
Because she listened with her heart 
to the words her father sent, 
a whole New World opened up to her.

P.S:




"If you don't like something, change it.
If you can't change it, change your attitude."
said Maya Angelou...and it is so true.....
we can always choose to change our attitude....
no matter what.
Let's choose to make it a great day:)
Namaste,
