Attitude is a Choice

Each day we move forward toward the end of our journey here in this life.
Each day presents different challenges, rewards, and expenses, and scenery.
Each day the road has bumps, pot holes, soft shoulders, and smooth stretchs, but no matter what it holds it is different from the previous day in some way.
No matter what happens in a given day it melds into the next, seamlessly, but differently with new rewards, challenges, expenses and scenery.
This journey of "each days" usually has a descriptive word attached to it.
The word that we use to describe this journey encapsulates our attitude toward life.
For some that word is hope.
For some that word is despair.
I have heard "same old same old".
I choose the word hope for my journey.
It is easier to be positive toward the day's journey with an attitude of hope than with an attitude of despair.
