attitude matters

okey, i only got 5 minutes for this entry. heehehe! i'm learning to master my time.. i can see a pattern here already... it seems like this is going to be a weekly journal... yeah it is... i see entries for monday only... oh well, at least im still not abandoning this journal. :-)

"all is well that begins well"
so to start my week, i have it all planned and scheduled.. blogging is not part of it but i guess i can spare 5 minutes. besides, a few people would like to know how am i doing...

my attitude is what keeps me smiling these days... i am so amazed how u can alter ur situation by altering ur attitude of mind.. i guess this is one of the greatest truths God has taught me...

how can a man like Job, Joseph, and Paul remain in God, enjoy their journey, and even exhort other believers to "rejoice in the Lord always, and again, i say rejoice" even they themselves were suffering??? were they out of their mind??? hmmm... how did they sustain themselves, remain humble, and accomplished what God had set before them? amazing!!!

i remember sharing this to a friend and she told me "that's weird mike!! how can u say that the journey is as enjoyable as the destination when ur suffering??" i just smiled coz she still didnt get it... she didnt see the whole picture... we have different perspective...

i shall be telling myself over and over again during the course of this journey "when all else fails, attitude matters..."
