Upon entering the office building I was greeted by a friendly receptionist. (This was at 7 a.m. – I Know… -Right?)…. You could just taste her enthusiasm for life... OK- Not to mention she had this HUGE PURPLE flower pinned on her uniform. After I had a seat in the waiting room I noticed the entire staff ALL had HUGE BRIGHT FLOWERS pinned onto their gray uniforms. I overheard the receptionist telling someone signing in that they ALL did this b/c the uniforms assigned to them were gray and lifeless. … yep so they wanted to CHANGE that…. SO they added these BRIGHT colored flowers to their collars. … AND what a statement of LIFE it made.
Sure enough -the next lady I talked to ALSO had a BRIGHT pink flower on her uniform… and AGAIN… she was incredibly cheerful … just vibrant… I commented to her on her joy and how nice it was to start my morning off w such a sweet soul. I am always curious on how people maintain this level of joy… so I ask…
“How do you stay so sweet?”….
One word…. GRATITUDE!
She replied… “I remain grateful “ …
Words of wisdom received.
Keeping a heart filled w gratitude.
