Thankful...

Saw this newspaper clipping on Facebook yesterday and was TOTALLY challenged by it! In our privileged and comparatively wealthy society, we are SO quick to complain, aren't we? It made me think of a little girl I have taught this year who reminded me in a lesson recently,

"I think we should all be a little bit more like Pollyanna, don't you think? She tried to see the good in everything!"

Incidentally, I love that story - definitely one I'll be reading to my girls in a few years time!

So here's a little Friday morning challenge for you... instead of complaining, lets recognise how very blessed we are...
