42 Days of Gratitude: Day 6

Today has been a trying day. Mondays are handicapped since I start my Mondaying at 3:30am with only 6 and a half hours of sleep but Mondays are also my most productive days because I take such good care of myself to get through the day.

Today I am grateful for all of the work I have done in the past so that I can remain rational in this irrational world of human beings (this world includes me by the way, I just have well-used tools or rationality taught to me by the master Dr. Albert Ellis himself). I learned that I can practice unconditional acceptance, and enlightened self-interest to gain insight in any human interaction.

I am grateful that I know how to undermine almost any opportunity I have to get myself all upset and the fact that I know that every upset is more about me than anything or anyone else. I do this by simply telling myself that I am like all human beings flawed. This simple statement goes a long way towards forgiveness.
