"You see, we can choose which set of circumstances to focus on. We can dwell on all the things that are wrong, or we can look at the many things that are going right. At any given moment in our lives, some things will be going other than the way we would wish, and others will be going just as we want them to. Our contentment depends on which set of circumstances we base our feelings on.
True, there are some circumstances that could pretty easily destroy contentment for almost anyone. Tragic things happen in the world, and there’s no guarantee that none of them will ever happen to us. But for the most part—the great majority of the time—we can choose to be contented or not, depending on what we concentrate on."

Manna for Moms | "Contented" by Megan Breedlove
So true for my everyday life, my prayer is that I and we can choose to be thankful, contentment is a truly a choice. Although our days feel crazy on the outside, may our inner spirit find joy and peace in the simple.
Have a great day, and as always thanks for stopping!
Love,
Kendra
