A New Day: Learning how to be grateful.

I've been keeping a diary for the past year and i have never gone back to review it until now. Have you ever wrote a story, gone back to review it and found yourself shocked by the content. I could not believe what a whining person i had become. I mean I complained about everything, even the good things because circumstances were not perfect. Now to my offense it had been a tough year, not just for me but for everyone. The problem is i never took the time to appreciate the small things. So I have incorporated this attribute to my character in my current script. She is real. She has issues. And the great thing about writing (and in real life if you work at it) your character can change. She can grow into a better person. A person that the audience cares about. In writing I have learned to appreciate what I have and where I am. For that I am grateful.
