Today I resolve to be cheerful.
I will not be discouraged by things that are petty.
I will not be distracted by things that don’t matter.
I will not worry about things I cannot change.
I will not allow tomorrow’s worries to destroy today’s cheer.
I will not allow the unexpected to alter my attitude.
I will try to greet each person with a smile,
and say no negative word.
I will try to take the best view of every situation,
and refrain from being cynical.
Today I will do my best,
whatever happens,
not only to be cheerful,
but to spread cheer,
hopefully making the world a better place to be.
