Day 5: Challenged Perspective

This morning a friend posted a video on her FB wall and I had a few minutes to kill so I decided to give it a go.  Wow.  It was/is so powerful that it makes my Gratitude Attitude for today.
This true story challenges my "woe is me" perspective that sometimes I get stuck in and muck around in.  It prompts in me a gratefulness for my life but also for people like Jeffery Wright who take what life offers and make the absolute most of it.  We need people, whether we know of them personally or hear about their stories through the grapevine, in our lives to challenge our perspectives and get us to see the good in life.

Watch this story, it is worth the 12 minutes.  I hope, like it did with me, that it will challenge your perspective, because we all need a reboot from time to time.
