What I'm thankful for: January 9

Today I'm thankful for...

Mondays!

It's already Monday again?!?

I'm not gonna lie; this one's a challenge for me, but part of this blog's purpose is to help me be grateful for things that maybe I take for granted or that I normally don't appreciate. And let's be honest, how many people really do appreciate Mondays? For most people, they're the first day of the work and/or school week and they mark the end of the beloved weekend that I spoke about just two short days ago.

On the other hand, you're alive and you're well enough to complain about Mondays. 

I don't really want to get too deep on this blog (hurts my brain), but how many people didn't wake up this morning? How many people would love to "it's Monday" as their biggest complaint? You get the picture. Psalm 118:24 tells us that this is the day the Lord has made and urges us to rejoice and be glad in it. My Bible (and I'm willing to bet I'm not alone here) doesn't have an asterisk that excludes Monday from this verse. Even though Mondays aren't usually the most appreciated day, and oftentimes the sound of the alarm clock on a Monday morning is enough to make me some people want to throw it out the window, it's another chance for life, and that makes me thankful.

Now, will someone send this entry to me next Monday morning?
