Turn on the Gratitude

Look at this beautiful scene. The flowers are in full bloom, and are so vibrant you can almost smell them. The rays of that sunrise seem to go on forever.

Is the darkness of discontent getting in the way of seeing the scene? Is the black void of pessimism blinding you of the beauties that show up in friends, family, music, movies, and yes, even the difficulties and challenges you face? Turn on the light of gratitude. Be grateful in hard things. Find the joy in the jumbled messes of life. It is the dark clouds that bring rain which gives us life.
