Today I have decided to try something new. I don't know what it is lately, maybe its the fact that we are in the middle of an official heat wave, or maybe it is just so tiring this summer everyone is annoyed, but lately I have noticed the negativity so think in the air you could probably cut it with a knife. And it seems to be contagious too, it spreads like wildfire, someone says or does something negative the next person starts and it goes on, and on , and on..... Anyways Today i have decided to try something new. instead of complaining, I am going to basically do the opposite and count my blessings, or as I like to call it, uncomplain.
COMPLAINT:
we are in the middle of a heat wave, and my house has no air conditioning..... >:(
UNCOMPLAINT:
