Our friends, Ed and Staci sent out a New Year letter and card. At the end they told about a challenge their family accepted to stop complaining, criticizing and gossiping. They gave a website www. acomplaintfreeworld.com where you can find more information to help you and your family accomplish this big task. I loved this because it was something I had been thinking a lot about lately. I notice how much different I feel about my husband, family, friends, co-workers, church members, etc. when I try to look at their positive attributes and focus less on the negative. Just the other day I was upset with a teacher at my school. I complained a good 10 min. to a friend about her. Later I spoke with this teacher on the phone and found out she had really been struggling in her life, recent divorce, issues with her children, etc. All these things were totally unknown to me. I was shocked. I felt horrible. I had judged her in her deepest time of need. That was it. I knew I needed to make a change. So, Ed and Staci, thanks for motivating me to accept this challenge too! I wanted to post it on my blog and share it with anyone else who wants to make a positive change!
