G is for Grateful or Grumpy?



Grateful or grumpy, it’s always your choice
Are you mad at the world or do you want to rejoice?
For it all comes down to your thoughts and attitude
Are you full of anger or full of gratitude?
You see the world in your own unique way
Your thoughts and attitude determine your day,
Grateful or grumpy, it’s up to you
What would you prefer to do?

  3. Lovely post! I'm always grateful and sometimes grumpy. That's my imperfection. You know that song Rainy Days and Mondays? She sings that they always get her down. Lots of rainy Mondays in Seattle. I wake up a grump then snap out of it.

    1. Good to hear you can snap out of it, Jen. I am not always cheerful either but I try to get out of it instead of wallowing in it as I would have when I was younger.

      I love that song Rainy Days and Mondays. I was a huge Carpenters fan as a teen when they were big. Oops! Giving my age away!

  6. I probably start the day a little grumpy, then more grateful as the day goes on!
