Living a Life with Joy

We face challenges and difficulties each day. But, how do we dial with them? Do we apprach situations with anger and frustruations or with wisdom and joy? Often times it is so easy to lose your cool, and approach a situation with anger and frustruations. I am writing this post because this happens to me and everyone around me frequently. Today while taking the taxi to my grandma's apartment, the taxi man dropped us somewhere else, and my mom got really frustrated. But hey, I was reminded that we have to rejoyce in every situation. Positive attitude is the key. I mean, of course it's easier said than done, but we have got to give it a try. God has blessed my life in so many ways, that all I could do is rejoyce and be thankful each day. Why get frustrated when you can thank God for the life He has given you? It goes back to how we take things in our lives for granted. Take a look around you. Look at the beautiful skies, sun, and stars. Look at the birds, trees, and plants. Look at yourself, healthy and breathing. There is so much we have to be thankful for, but we treat it like it's something we always had and always will. This is where we are wrong. You won't live forever on Earth, and neither will I. Life goes so fast, and we need to rejoyce even for the small things in life. Live a life with joy and be thankful each day! :)
