The above is a quote from a “Snoopy” cartoon that appeared on Facebook recently. The lesson here is that if you go to bed with a positive thought in your mind and a grateful heart, there’s a good chance that you’re going to sleep well and wake up the next day in a positive frame of mind. This means the rest of your day will be far more pleasant and productive. A friend of mine called my attention to a book titled, GOOD PEOPLE: Stories from the Best of Humanity by Gabriel Reilich and Lucia Knell. It contains 101 very short stories about the best of human kindness. Reading one of these stories before you go to bed will almost guarantee that you end your day with a positive thought and a grateful heart.
