This day in history from:

A good day no matter what

I'm really convinced that the difference between a good day and a bad one is perspective.

Take my day yesterday. Despite the weather, I had to go all the way to Serendra for a meeting. I did not like it at first because I already turned back and people know that when I'm already at home, it takes a lot of effort for me to overcome the law of inertia.

I said to myself, "This will still be a good day, despite it all."

And lo and behold, my trip was light, despite the heavy rains. It was already after lunch and students and government employees were already sent home. Floods in EDSA already subsided. And I actually made the trip with minimal stress.

And when I got to the meeting, it turns out I was badly needed and they piled me up with a lot of work. That's good news because that's directly proportional to what I charge them.

And I'm going to attend to that work today. That's today's agenda.

And since I was in Serendra already, I already made a "visualization" trip by actually seeing and touching the things I am going to get someday, like the new iMac, that's already here. I'm getting the 24-incher, you know...

There's really everything to gain (and nothing to loose) with having a positive perspective. At the very least, you get good days, everyday. No matter what happens.

Try it. You'll be surprised how beneficial it is.

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
