The Power of “Positude”

Hot fun in the summertime, we are cautious and careful.

Open air gatherings are festive and joyful.

We have a Celebratetude, we weren’t sure if we would make it through the worst of Covid. Truly we can say with certitude that “whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”

Our Hopetude is at an all-time high.

The Pandemic has shown us what is good and what is bad with the human race.

Positude helps us find balance on the bicycle we call life. Going downhill is easy, going uphill challenges us to the core of our being.

It is easy to have a Lightude when all is well and a Darktude when sad things happen.

Positude helps us to have a Lightude when things get rough, and darkness comes.

I hope that your summer days are filled with delight and your nights are filled with peace.

As we journey on the path we call life, may all your troubles be resolved with Positude!

Be well my beloved friends.

Always Agape,
Sylvia
