The Power of “Positude”

The days are getting longer and our thoughts turn to spring and “March Madness.” So many are hurting, too many discouraging things happening. So what can Positude do to help us keep an attitude of gratitude.

When I’m tempted to complain, I say “thank you” instead. Life can always be overwhelming, but for every distress, find five things to celebrate. Never forget how powerful words are. Words can empower us or rob us of power. So we must be careful to use our words with wisdom.

When people are hurting, sometimes they just need someone to listen to their hearts cry.

Positude can say with Lovetude what the hurting need to hear.

Remember thoughts, words, and deeds in agreement with Positude are beautiful things!

Be well my beloved friends.

Always Agape,

Sylvia
