Attitude

I don't forward a lot of e-mails. I guess I figure that everyone is getting forwarded e-mails and ends up pretty much getting the same stuff anyways. Every now and then I will get one that I really like.

I received this e-mail forward in early January. It is from a friend who has struggled with a situation in her life for several years and is hoping the biggest part of that struggle will be over soon. Everyone struggles with something at some point, but attitude can truly influence the outcome.


ATTITUDE (forwarded e-mail)

There once was a woman who woke up one morning,
Looked in the mirror,
And noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
'Well,' she said, 'I think I'll braid my hair today.'
So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up,
Looked in the mirror
And saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
'H-M-M,' she said,
'I think I'll part my hair down the middle today.'
So she did and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up,
Looked in the mirror and noticed
That she had only one hair on her head.
'Well,' she said, 'today I'm going
To wear my hair in a pony tail.'
So she did, and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up,
Looked in the mirror and noticed
That there wasn't a single hair on her head.
'YAY!' she exclaimed.
'I don't have to fix my hair today!'

Attitude is everything.
