The Power of “Positude”

Spring is upon us; we sprang forward in March.

I have seen robins and blossoms.

I look forward to warm days.

I am excited about my hip surgery. No more pain. My left leg is longer than my right leg, so I still need a cane for walking.

Positude has been a blessing.

When I am tempted to complain, I think of all the reasons I have to celebrate.

I am overwhelmed with Joyfultude and Gratitude.

I am an overcomer and I encourage myself and others to think positively.

The World can be cold and cruel.

Life can be discouraging and difficult.

Self-help books caution us to think, say, and do positive things.

Your head and your heart can agree with a positive or a negative reality.

The choice is ours to make moment by moment.

I can because I believe I can.

Positude makes the difference.

Always Agape,
Sylvia
