Finding Joy….

May 5th.               

Here’s Something to Feel Good About Today…

There’s a handyman, named Victor who works in my complex. I bump into him often in passing and every time I do, he greets me with a warm hello and a big smile. Here’s a man who does make a lot of money at his job, and may not be recognized for the work that he does. When he replaced my broken washing machine, and unclogged my kitchen disposal he might as well have been an angel sent from heaven.  I thanked him profusely, yet he refused to take a tip.

Victor reminds me that it’s not so much what we do that really makes the difference, it’s the attitude we bring to it. I’m learning to become aware of my state of mind and what attitude I bring to every situation. I’m grateful to have Victor in my life, a stranger who teaches me this important lesson.

I hope you have a few people in your life who demonstrate that it’s important to find joy in all the little things. Better still being a person who generates joy is contagious and uplifts everyone you meet.
