You know, it ocurred to me the other day that I complain a lot about my life. I don't mean to complain so much, but it just seems that lately things aren't so great. I've forgotten how to be truly content and no matter where I turn I can always find something wrong. The biggest issue being my single-ness. I hate that so many I am close to are finding their soul-mates, and I am alone. I realize that God has a purpose for this loneliness but I'm fed up with it.
Anyways the purpose of this blog is to write about things that are good. I need to remind myself that things aren't really as bad as I seem to think they are. So bright thoughts for my life:
1. I have a job, it pays well enough that I am not stressed over money.
2. I have a family that loves me and cares about me.
3. I live in a free country where I have the right to complain about the government!
4. God's grace.
5. Friends to turn to when I need them.
6. A roof over my head and food in my belly.
7. I have a pet that makes me laugh every day.
8. I'm old enough to drink, and smart enough to know when to stop.
9. I have patience.
10.Music always calms my spirit.
So there are ten bright things in my life. I'm smiling already.
