Fill In The Blank

Did you hear about _____________?

How are you going to fill in that blank?

Is it going to be about something positive? Something negative? Something current or recent? I was asked that question today and it was about something unpleasant and I found myself just wanting to tune it out. The reason is that I’m on a positive kick right now. I’m focusing on lis

tening and talking about good things in life. Things like how the Dow Jones just closed at a new record high!

What are you focusing on? How much do you watch CNN – Constantly Negative News? Think about it. How you answer that question may (or may not) be a reflection on how you look at things.

Katherine Mansfield, 1888-1923, Writer, said, “Could we change our attitude, we should not only see life differently, but life itself would come to be different. Life would undergo a change of appearance because we ourselves had undergone a change of attitude.”
