I won't complain

I heard that line in a gospel song this morning. I must confess...I can find myself drowning in a sea of negativity from time to time. I don't know why its so easy to find something to gripe about. But what I do know is that it is not healthy to live in negativity. The other day my wife and I were in one of those negative clouds. I quickly decided that we should say something positive. I said something like "we've just made 2 negative statements in a row...let's say something positive". I think that's a good rule to live by. Don't say 3 negative things in a row. The goal of course is to eliminate complaining all together. I'm not saying that we should deny reality. But I think we (I) can do a better job of thinking and speaking positivley. God help me to count blessings instead of complaining.
