Renew Your Attitude

"Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins.  If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined.  No, they pour new wine into new wineskins and both are preserved."  Matthew 9:17

It's amazing and sometimes sad to watch the progression of childhood to adulthood.  We stop laughing as often.  We're told to "act your age".  It gets harder to find the joy in the little things as we sweat not just the little stuff but the big stuff too.  No wonder we all need to renew our attitudes once in a while.  Disney World is one way that I can renew my attitude and get in touch with that inner child.  Snow Days are another way.

Living in a part of the country that can get several snow storms a year, I am always renewed by the beauty of the snow on the trees, the warmth that I am grateful for when I am inside protected from the cold outside and the sense of contentment that I feel when we are home bound and have all of our obligations canceled.  I think I look forward to those "snow days" now just as much as I did when I was a child!  I realize that I am blessed to be at home with my children in a way that allows me to take those snow days off.  These snow days are truly "best life days" for me.

So as the Northeast part of the country braces itself for what seems to be a significant storm, I am grateful that today gets to be a "best life day"!

Have a best life day today!
