My Attitude

It still amazes me. I've lived now in Indiana for over 12 years, and I am still surprised at the difference in people's attitudes as soon as it starts to feel even just a little like spring! The warmth, the sun, the neighbors even come out of theri houses for the first time in 4 months...

I know that something so simple as the weather should not control my feelings and attitudes. I want to be the kind of person who rises above circumstances and experiences real joy that is talked about in the book of Philippians.

I guess I have some more maturing and growing up to do because the last two sunny, spring-like days here in northern Indiana have me feeling like I don't have a care in the world!
