发布时间：2013-01-29 编辑：查字典英语网小编

I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am important.

My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have.

Today I can complain because the weather is rainy or I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.

Today I can feel sad that I don’t have more money or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste.

Today I cangrumble about（发牢骚，抱怨）my health or I can rejoice that I am alive.

Today I canlament over（哀悼，悲痛）all that my parents didn’t give me when I was growing up or I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born.

Today I can cry because roses have thorns or I can celebrate that thorns have roses.

Today I can mourn my lack of friends or I can excitedlyembark upon（从事，着手）a quest to discover new relationships.

Today I canwhine（抱怨，牢骚）because I have to go to work or I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.

Today I can murmurdejectedly（沮丧地）because I have to do housework or I can feel honored because the Lord has provided shelter for my mind, body and soul.

Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped. And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping.

What today will be like is up to me. I get to choose what kind of day I will have!
