Gratitude: Day TWO

I was chatting with a friend the other day who had an experience that would have made me grumpy for the day – or the week ($1,000 less than you anticipated. Yikes!). She told me that she chose to view the situation with “Happy Eyes” instead of grumbling about it. I like that. We can choose to see situations with Happy Eyes and make the best of it. I love being surrounded by people who see the LIGHT.
