Just pondering life again and I wondered just how many actually get up and commit to being the best that they could be each day? How many actually think about their action first, and commit to not letting anyone ruin their day? Sounds easy but you know the drill the first person that walks into your day has a sour attitude and it sets the pace for the whole day; why not beat them to the punch and commit to being happy and productive despite the reality of our lives. What a different world it would be the sour puss is cut off at the get go with a "good morning, what a wonderful day it is" and a big smile. Try not to smile back it is not easy smiles are contagious and it has been proven that it takes less muscle power to smile than to frown.
When I was going through my divorce I would walk to the mirror every morning and say " I will be happy " even if I had to grinch my teeth to say it, and there were days when there were tears. I willed myself to be happy and it worked, happiness came to me. It took time but I was ready for it, and when I look back to those dark days I know that being positive changed the direction of my life. We are in control of our little space in this world we make our own destiny. My favorite saying is "When things go wrong don't go with them", and it is just that simple.

Stand up to the dark side and bring light into the room, we can not change 'the' world but we can change where we stand that is our world; by being positive and supportive of others we can make a difference.. Look around and see who is having a bad day and go and encourage them, maybe just a wink will turn their day around, a pat on the shoulder, or a simple "ata girl or boy'. Nothing is more up lifting than to have someone, say you did a good job; or "your really know how to do that well". Simple positive gestures are free gifts we can give to others and then the magic happens it come back to you, three fold. Sounds to easy, well try it for a month and see for yourself it is one of the truisms in life. And it is free to all who wish to improve their days.
