Keeping it in perspective....

Sometimes I find that I get stressed and can snap at those around me. I feel bad for doing it but sometimes we just lose perspective a bit. When I was getting myself set up for work this morning I spotted something hanging up on my cubicle wall and for the first time in ages I read it. It helped me put things in perspective this morning and I think I'll make a habit of reading it each morning. Here's what it says:

There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
"Well," she said, "I t hink I'll braid my hair today." so she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw she had only two hairs on her head. "Hmmm" she said, " I think I'll part my hair down the middle today." So she did and she had a grand day.

the next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head. "Well," she said, " Today I'm going to wear my hair ina pony tail." So she did and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed there wasn't a single hair on her head.
"YEAH!!" she exclaimed.
"I don't have to fix my hair today!"
Attitude is everything. Be kinder than necessary, fir everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
