Cranky grandpa was asleep on the living room couch. Little Johnny decided to pull a prank on grandpa by putting a little Limburger cheese on his mustache. Presently grandpa awoke and sat up. “Boy, this couch stinks,” he said, walking into the kitchen. After moment or two, he announced, “This kitchen stinks, too,” and stepped outside for some fresh air. In time he delighted Johnny by shouting, “The whole world stinks!”

The next time we announce that the whole world stinks, perhaps we should check ourselves out. Perhaps the problem is our own stinkin’ attitude. If I expect to be treated badly, I surely will be treated badly. Perhaps if put a little positive spin in my life, some positive stuff will return. The problem is not in the circumstances, its with my attitude.
