Lets Share the Positive Ladies!

With so much negativity we experience everyday- let's just take a minute to list what we are thankful and happy for... I know things can get us down (from small things like traffic to big things like family drama or financial concerns)...

But girls: How about each of us just make a quick list so that when we are feeling down we can just re-read it and remind ourselves that all the good always over-shadows the bad...

Who wants to start?

Re: Lets Share the Positive Ladies!

Im honestly very happy about A LOT in my life. I reall dont complain much at all. But every morning when the love of my life calls me at 5:45 to tell me that he loves me and that he hopes i have a good day... it just puts a huge smile on my face and makes me even more thankful for everything.

I am happy that I am engaged to the life of my life. He is so wonderful, and does so much for me, I love him so much.

And I am happy that I have two great sisters who mean the world to me.

And I am happy that we just re-planted my mother's river birch tree that she had planted before she passed away, into our yard. It was in her and my stepfather's yard, but he is moving, and didn't wanna leave it there. So now I get to have her beautiful tree in our yard I just hope it takes to the ground and starts to grow again in the spring

Re: Lets Share the Positive Ladies!

After my trip to Israel & seeing people living in shabby make shift tents on the side of a mountain in the dessert.....i am happy for the everyday things we sometimes take for granted....

1.) a roof over my head
2.) food to eat
3.) a car
4.) and of course friends & family, their love & support

Re: Lets Share the Positive Ladies!

Aww Nina- that was so nice. I'm so happy Peter is home too

I'm so happy for the love and support that I get from Vinny every second of everyday- he is there for me and we have such a postive, loving and giving relationship. I thank Kenny for blessing me with him- what a good person Kenny was and what an amazing friend. It's always the good ones that are taken but I know that he is in Heaven with God and looking over all that cared for him... I'm so happy and thankful for Kenny's family who I am so close with. Nicole and Jodi (his mom and sis) are the best... and Laura too of course, I'm not forgetting about you!

I'm SO lucky and happy that I have so many great things going for me at work- in spite of normal work drama, I recently got promoted, I got a raise... and I am working in addition to my job in my DREAM field that I love... I truly LOVE what I do and have been given the best opportunity and I'm taking advantage of it!! I will give more info about that second career later-- when it is more established and I can release info!

I'm so blessed to have my health and happiness- to have the ability to see the good and push out the bad... I'm thankful to my MIL, who I have really grown to love and adore. We live together- of course we had our hard times and it was tuff but we have an understanding for each other now and we have come such a long way. She has really helped me become a better person who isn't so worried about being criticized all the time- but she helped me to realize that family and friends that love me- love me for ME and no matter what. They never get jealous or bitter- they don't keep things in the back of their mind to throw in my face- they are just nice, good people. I am so lucky to have her insight in my life b/c she is a lot older and wiser than I am and I'm learning so much from her. And I'm honest with her now when she does something I don't agree with or that bugs me-- and she does the same with me (like when I take the roll of paper towels and forget to return them haha) Sorry Mama! Love ya!! Like she always says- Her and I are a lot alike- we call a spade a spade!

I'm thankful for the mistakes I have made- I am thankful b/c I learned from them and became a better person as a result.

I'm thankful for the fact that I am happy and positive- b/c then when other people have good fortune I can honestly be happy for them- b/c I'm happy with myself. It's called being humble and having grace... I'm so delighted to have so many wonderful friends on here- can't wait for the upcoming party Vin and I are throwing. It's so nice to have people actually care and chip in to help- offering to bring things, etc. You girls are awesome friends!

I'm very happy and thankful for the fact that I accept things I have no control over-- I understand that there are people who are good and nice to me and care about me- and others that don't. It is as simple as that. But I'm glad that I can understand that and not walk around with hate built up as a result. It is what it is and that's OK because I have so many others that are happy- and I'm so happy that they will be apart of our wedding day because they are there for the right reasons... not to judge and be negative but more to be happy for us and our love-- as I'm happy for them and their love.

I'm really happy and thankful for my faith in God... Vinny and I make every effort to pray and go to Church as often as we can... That helps strengthen our faith and hope.

I'm so lucky to have my wonderful Dad who I look up to so much because of his strength and bravery... He is easy going, calm and has accepted things in his life that were not perfect (about himself and others) and has turned that negative into a positive- and now leads a happy and confident life- I strive to be more like that every single day! It's the best way to live... I love him for that SO much and I don't tell him often enough but I'm going to make an effort to start doing that.

OK, saved the best for last: Charlotte! The cutest little thing- she is one of the best things that has ever happened to Vinny and I. We truly laugh at her or smile because of her every single day- at least ten times a day!



Great thread, right guys? Happiness- spread it! Otherwise you will always be bitter and have so much hate and anger stored up. Then, unfortunately, the people who are content and happy will leave you in the dust and life will just go on w/o you.
