So I was working in Boca Raton for three weeks. I stayed at the same hotel. I got to know many members of the staff on a first name basis.
I was struck by the difference in the attitudes of two of the maids or members of the housekeeping staff. One, always had a negative look on her face. She rarely spoke, but would gesture with her hands for you to move out of the way. She looked like she was unhappy with the world. I wondered if it felt beneath her to work at such a job.
The housekeeper #2 was a bubbly happy bundle of joy. She spoke to me, and I am sure to others. She had a wonderful smile. She was happy at her place of work.
Two human beings. Similar situations. One a joy and one a pill. The effect that each of them have on their surroundings was evident. One brought things down, and one lifted things up.
We have the opportunity each day to grouse or to see the good. What is your choice?
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the Good.
