ATTITUDE DETERMINES
ALTITUDE
I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the
clock strikes midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am
important.
My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have.
Today I can
complain because the weather is rainy or I
can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.
Today I can feel sad that I don't
have more money or I can be glad that my finances
encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste.
Today I can grumble about my
health or I can rejoice that I am alive.
Today I can lament over all that
my parents didn't give me when I was growing up or I can feel
grateful that they allowed me to be born.
Today I can cry because roses
have thorns or I can celebrate that thorns have roses.
Today I can mourn my lack of
friends or I can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover
new relationships.
Today I can wail because I have
to go to work or I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.
Today I can complain because I have to go to school or eagerly
open my mind and fill it with rich new titbits of knowledge.
Today I can murmur dejectedly
because I have to do housework or I can
feel honoured because the Lord has entrusted treasures into my care.
Today stretches ahead of
me, waiting to be shaped. And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the
shaping.
What today will be
like is up to me. I get to choose what kind of day I will have!

"Don't Give Up On Me"
(Andy Grammar)
I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue
And I will stay
I will stay with you
We'll make it to the other side
Like lovers do
I'll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
'Cause I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on...
I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me
And I will hold
I'll hold onto you
No matter what this world'll throw
It won't shake me loose
I'll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
'Cause I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on...
I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue
