Lately I have been curious as to how some people can remain so happy in this uncertain world. There are some people who just seem to have it all and are genuinely content with life. They can take hits and hardly feel them. I want so desperately to be one of those people. So in recent review of my life, I have taken inventory of where my thoughts, actions and habits tend to land on the scale of positivity...and I have been completely surprised to find that in the majority they don't. They mostly land on the negativity scale with rave reviews from that side of the fence. So here is my plan. I cannot possibly try to be one of those genuinely happy people if I will not allow myself by focusing on the negative and after reading what this blog used to be, it is apparent that I have a lot of work to do. So let the rebuilding begin!
With each post I will begin with three things...
1) A link to the song I am listening to while writing. I believe this is so important because of the tremendous role music has on our thoughts and feelings.
2) Something I am grateful for be it person, object, or place. The first step to being truly happy is being truly grateful
3) A quote. This could be from some famous philosopher or from a tv show or any thing. Just a little quote that makes me happy or inspires me.
So since I am already behind on this...I will end my post for now with those three things

I am grateful for my friends. They are the ones I can look to when I feel it is absolutely impossible to smile. Specifically you two...you know who you are and I couldn't have asked for two better people to count on when I feel like I can't move. You have always given me that push to be better, not because I wasn't good enough but because you knew I could be better. You always believe in my potential even when I can't. I love you forever!
