Pocket Surprise

By Chris • May 10, 2012

I have visited plenty of self improvement blogs and inspirational blogs these past few months and most of them all tell you that you need to wake up and state positive affirmations. When you wake up, you need to think that something great is going to happen today, and that you are going to have a great day. This positive energy is supposed to attract more positivity throughout your day. So this morning I woke up and decided to give it a whirl. The sun was shining bright through my bedroom window blinds, and it immediately gave me this warm feeling inside. I thought to myself, "today is going to be a great day. One of the best days ever!". I got out of bed, took my morning shower and began to get dressed. I put on a pair of dress pants I have not warn in a while, followed by my dress shirt and that is when it began. I reached into my left pocket and pulled out what felt like some paper. You know that feeling of finding a $20 bill in your pants and it feels like free money? Because you forgot all about it and assumed you never did? I pulled out a $100 bill and a $50 bill in the same pocket. Yes, $150 to start off my day that I forgot I had. It was one of the best feelings and I'm sure if someone could have seen the smile on my face they would have understood. I literally yelled in joy, with my poor puppy looking at me like I was crazy! Moral of the story, start your morning off thinking you are going to have the best day ever and you just might! I wonder what will happen next :)
