The Power of “Positude”

Spring is bursting out all over.

The buds and blossoms are a riot of glorious colors and scents.

Winter’s frigid grasp has been loosened as we enter the warm embrace of spring. As the seasons transition, the madness we call life grows to epic proportions.

I find myself in a state of Contentmentude lately. Mama used to say “I just can’t get upset about it.”

Now I understand how and why she felt that way. So many of us feel helpless and hopeless because of the relentless stress of life. Positude helps us to find the silver lining of every cloud that overshadows our day.

As we navigate the ways of life and death, we discover the power of agreement. A Collaboratetude with Positude makes the journey pass more pleasantly. Find something to celebrate everyday. Cooperatetude with positivity and experience the Joytude of life!

Be well my beloved friends.

Always Agape,

Sylvia
