Which is more likely to come out of your mouth \u2013 a complaint about something your kids or your husband failed to do? Or a word of appreciation for something they did?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Consider your most recent restaurant experience. When the time came to figure the tip, did you scroll through all the ways your server met your needs or quickly list the ways she failed you?\u00a0<strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If I asked you to list four pet peeves in two minutes or less, could you do it?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh yeah. Here\u2019s my list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. People in the right lane who drive past the sign that says, \u201cRight Lane Closed Ahead. Merge Left\u201d until they can\u2019t go any farther, then expect the sign-abiding people who merged left a mile ago to let them in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. The automated checkout voice that prompts you (at ear-splitting decibel levels) to put the item you just scanned into the baggage area. Every. Single. Time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3.  The certainty that if I leave my house without makeup to run to the grocery store for one item, I will meet everyone I know \u2013 on Aisle 1.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. \u00a0If a bird plops on my windshield, the deposit will land at eye level on whichever side of the car I\u2019m sitting on \u2013 on the day I run out of wiper fluid.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>There, that was easy. I think it took me less than a minute to list those four gripes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>Now, if someone asked me to list five things I appreciate, could I rattle them off as quickly?<\/strong>\u00a0Or as passionately?

Every time we visit, she says something that makes me feel good. Her comments aren&#8217;t just empty flattery, they&#8217;re thoughtful and timely. She\u2019s a great example of how to use encouragement as a mighty force for good.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today is a new day. We get to choose whether we\u2019ll use our words to build up or to tear down. If we want to be most like Jesus, instead of grumbling and fault-finding, we can channel our thoughts toward gratitude and affirmation. We can speak golden words that warm others with their glow.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>I began this post with a list of pet peeves.\u00a0<strong>I\u2019d like to end it with a list of things for which I\u2019m grateful.\u00a0<\/strong>Then perhaps you\u2019d join me by leaving a comment sharing what you appreciate.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>If we begin each day with gratitude instead of grumbling,\u00a0<\/strong>we\u2019ll find it easier to carry the positive words into the rest of our day.
