Instead of focusing on the negative aspects of my existence, Why not highlight the positive? I have a good paying career that I continue to strive in. I have a warm safe place to rest my head. I share a home with a young woman very dear to my heart. I am well taken care of by her. I have food I have a car I have clothes and fair health. What more do I acquire? It seems sufficient enough. I am not mean spirited I am not cruel to others. I treat others with respect. I am caring and compassionate. I have friends that love me family that loves me. I have a dog who adores and loves me unconditionally. There is large amounts of goodness I overlook because I am too focused on the bad. It is easy to lose yourself in the darkness but There is always a flickering light to show us the way back.
This is my goal for the new year. I want to fill blank pages with words of encouragement and praise. If i can create my own dark clouds, i can just as easily create sunshine.
