A Case of the Mondays

It's Monday so you know what that means..... facebook blows up with people complaining about what day it is.  Counting down the days until the weekend despite the fact they were just weekending less than 12 hours ago.  I get it.... really I do.  A study recently came out that for the first time ever, more than 50% of people hate their jobs.  So I guess I can understand why at least half of you hate Mondays. 
I, on the other hand, happen to like Mondays most of the time.  Sometimes I might even say I love them.  There's something about a fresh start that makes me happy.  If you had a bad week, now is your chance to change the outcome of this week.  A mental reset button of sorts. 
I grew up around many people that worked very hard, but I would never say any of them loved their jobs.  There is something to be said for people who continue to work hard, regardless of their feelings about their jobs, don't get me wrong.  But part of me always wondered, if you're not happy, why don't your change it?
If you've learned anything at all from reading my blog, I hope it's that you realize how short life can be and the importance of time.  The time we do have, and the time we may not have.  I pray the rest of you don't have to learn that lesson the way I did and instead just decide today to take advantage of the time you do have so that you can look back on your life with no regrets. 
Hear my heart, I'm not telling you to run into work today, give your boss the finger and say "peace out."  But if you're not happy about something in your life, change it.  If it's something you can't change, pray for peace about it.  Simple as that.  I'm not saying everyday will be easy.  We've all been dealt cards we feel are unfair, but I'm astounded at how many people are willing to stay in an unhappy situation, rather than dig deep to change it. 
I have no idea how many of my friends read this blog, but if you have read this one and it has pulled on your heartstrings a bit, I have a favor to ask of you.  Can you post something on your facebook page today about something great that happened to you?  Small or big, it doesn't matter.  Positive status updates and pictures seem to be few and far between, especially on a Monday.  I would love nothing more than to hear from my friends about all the great things that are going on in their lives. 
Happy Monday friends!
