NATIONAL UPSY DAISY DAY

Each year on June 8, we celebrate National Upsy Daisy Day. This fun day is set aside to encourage everyone to face the day positively and to get up ‘gloriously, gratefully and gleefully’ each morning.

#UpsyDaisyDay

Every day is a gift. If we remember that as we rise each morning, it will help us carry a good attitude throughout the day, whatever the day may bring us. Life is full of challenges and bumps in the road. It's our attitude that helps us over the bumps to help us get through the challenges to move onward with a smile.

Give it a try. Be grateful and thankful for what you do have. If you're tired today, be thankful for having a bed to sleep in. Feeling bummed out for not knowing what to eat? Be grateful for having options to choose which food you have. Try a smile and see how it feels. It may surprise you that it feels good on the inside also and how other people will smile back. You may just brighten up their day! Upsy Daisy!
