Positively Positive!

Since my decision to take a step back from my relationship and analyze things: My life, my feelings, my ability to be a happier me....I've decided to attempt to look at things in a more positive light.

If anyone in the world is negative, I would be that one. Not to blame that on anyone, because I love(d) my parents dearly, but I grew up in a lot of negativity. Don't get me wrong, I had a great childhood and I could not have asked for more from it, but everything, and I mean everything was always looked at as the ever popular glass half empty.

One of the things that I have decided to do is surround myself with happier, much more positive aspects of life. In searching for something such as this, I came across some very inspiring quotes that I wanted to share:


“Fear less, hope more; Eat less, chew more; Whine less, breathe more; Talk less, say more; Love more, and all good things will be yours”

I really have taken this one to heart, it is something I want to live by every day!

********************

“Instead of thinking about what you're missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.”

I can totally do this one! I know how fortunate I am to have the people I have in my life and the love that not everyone is so fortunate to have.


One day at a time! One step at a time! I am on the path to better days!

Amen, it's so easy to look at the negative. I'm very bad at this and trying to be better and enjoying what I have and being thankful of the things that have gone right and know that my life can't be peaches it has to have those ups and downs that hopefully will make me stronger.

You go girl!
