Bump for those needing to replace negative thoughts!

I was right there where you were...

Big smile, and if you just can't keep the thoughts positive all the time... "fake it until you can make it!"

Jim

this couldn't have come at a better time that's for sure :-) I printed it off and plan to carry it with me for a little while. Someone said you never know who your words will touch, well I am deeply touched and what a fluke that I would log on today, and the first post I read was this one! thanks all!

Wow Pen, 1400 days and still posting to help others. Way to go. "You never know who your words will touch". I don't know who said that before me but I'm sure someone did. I think it is true.

Patrick - you are doing it for sure now. Stay positive! Lainey � I have been a little remiss in the rewards department lately, any ideas for me? Sue - happy to have inspired you with this one! ;p bj2705 � I had to go through 50 on the way here and I was mighty proud when I got to 50 I can tell you � you be proud too! Island Girl � I am reminded of two of my favourites. Firstly, origin unknown to me, "be happy or be sad � they both take the same amount of effort". And secondly, Leo Tolstoy's "If you want to be happy, be". :) Best Wishes All Penitent d1401

Thanks Pen And my personal favorite: Fake it until you make it! The simple act of smiling and laughing can help lift your mood and make it easier for you to see your world in a positive light. It is SO true..once again PMA, Positive Mental Attitude..it can make ya or break ya!
