Attitude

How we choose to live our life
And treat others 
Good or bad
Happy or sad
All boils down to
Attitude.

For attitude is important
If you want to get on in life
You'll never please everyone
This is true
But a good positive attitude
May get you through
Life's varying terrain.

In some public places and while shopping
I often find assistants unfriendly and crude 
Having such a bad attitude
Can affect our mood
It amazes me how some make a living by
Scowling not smiling looking so miserable
And not friendly and giving.

While others are so warm their attitude is good
It's a real shame
Everyone's attitude is not the same
But a the world becomes a much colder place
Bad attitude to everything shows it's ugly face
For to me
Attitude s everything.

I treat others the way I want to be treated. Not everyone is the same. Peter, attitudes are simply overrated. Love the issue

Hi Skat great to hear from you as always. you're so right my friend we are all different. but in general, I believe there is a big shift in attitude, and I still think attitude is very important. Attitudes like moods can change, while many people do not. From my own observations, I have seen people with great attitudes and many with very bad, when working with other people, ie stores or general life. people can be stubborn and ignorant too.thank you. Pete.
