Attitude not only colors everything – it swamps it. These days it’s easy to make a never-ending list of what
. is bothering, irritating, aggravating, agitating, angering you
. is making you sad, grieving, depressed, despairing, worried
What is more difficult – particularly this year – is looking for what
. makes you smile, fills you with joy, gives you hope, makes your heart melt.
I am trying to concentrate on seeing the good in our world – not as a Pollyanna-ish or head-in-the-sand type of attitude, but as a survival skill as we ALSO try to deal with and/or fix all the things that need our attention.
I’m thrilled by all the talented people in our world. When I find an example of this, it fills me up. It makes me proud to live on the same planet. I love it that I can share their talent with you.
We can help each other through difficult times by keeping hope for the future high, sharing what’s right with the world, sharing coping mechanisms that work for us, and simply listening and caring.
