When I opened this book with my son this morning, I had no idea how much I needed to read that. It was so perfect for what I was already talking with my family about. Sometimes it's just the way we are looking at things that make them seem so awful. I challenge you to look for the good in every situation, and in every person you interact with and find a way to be a blessing in someone's life today!
As we go through each day, we can get so distracted by our never ending to-do lists, problems and challenges, or just the busyness of everyday and forget to check our thoughts. Did you know that even plants need to hear positive things? Our words and thoughts are so important!
When we look at the messes in our homes, many of us forget that others have children in the hospital that can't play with toys or dress themselves. We forget that our kitchens are messy because we have delicious food, and many around the world would love to have our problems! They would love to have a husband who works long hours and comes home exhausted at night, because theirs hasn't worked in years.
When we look for the bad things we are ALWAYS going to find plenty. We are human after all. None of us is perfect, myself included. BUT, when we start to look for the good, we start to see little, tiny things everywhere that we can be thankful for! Let's all work on looking for the best things in our homes and in those around us and saying out loud what it is we see.
We can all use a compliment and praise every day, right?
