Isn't it easy to complain about people and complain about hard your day is going?
Not so easy to find the gold in your day or the person who is pushing all your buttons!
A week or two a go I was driving to a meeting and it was like God dropped a picture into my mind of someone hunting for treasure with a metal detector they can spend a lot of time listening for that beep that tells them that something shiny is buried beneath them, when they do hear that sound they have a choice they can drop their detector and start digging or they can ignore it and carry on searching!
If they choose to dig it can be dirty work they have to get through a lots of dirt before they find that glistening piece of gold or treasure.
People and situations can be like hunting for treasure we have to almost ignore all the crappy bits and hunt for the beauty that is hidden deep inside!
Today we have to pay a car bill as the car broke! Where's the treasure in that?? Well I'm thankful we are all safe and we have loving family who drive us home!
Digging for treasure is making yourself stop and be thankful but also its good practise to bring out the gold in other people! People need to be reminded that they have treasure within them yes even the most of difficult people!
Dig for gold people not for dirt!
