Stay Positive

The pessimistic amongst us will say that for every positive there is a negative, whilst the optimistic will simply turn that round and say for every negative there is a positive - they will also say turn a frown upside down.

I should know, I've had enough bad luck (and I'm sure I'll have more) over the last two years but as I look back I realise that I have been so lucky as well - what's the alternative? You might become severely depressed and feel much worse and it will take much longer to recover from it.

I feel lucky to be alive, having been at deaths door four times.

I feel lucky to have a loving family whom i adore, and I feel so blessed that I am able to spend more time with them.

I feel lucky that I have some fabulous friends that have kept me going over the past year. They have made me laugh so much which has kept me from being in a dark and dismal place, and I've said this many times but laughter is definitely the best medicine.

I feel lucky to have found Wealthy Affiliate which has given me something else to focus on and a huge community of friends that manage to inspire me every day.

I feel so very, very lucky to have all this and I know that when any more bad luck comes my way I have a way of finding a positive.

Just to finish here are the lyrics of a song that really puts it all into perspective:


ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE

Monty Python written by Eric Idle

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...

...always look on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)

Always look on the light side
of life...
(Whistle)

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle
- that's the thing.
And...always look on the bright
side of life...
(Whistle)

Come on.

Always look on the right side
of life...
(Whistle)

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain
with a bow
Forget about your sin - give the
audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance
anyhow.

So always look on the bright side
of death...
(Whistle)

a-Just before you draw your terminal breath...
(Whistle)

Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true
You'll see its all a show, keep 'em laughin as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you

And...
Always look on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)

Always look on the right side
of life...

C'mon Brian, cheer up

Always look on the bright side
of life...

Always look on the bright side
of life...

Worse things happen at sea you know.

I mean - what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
- you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing.

Always look on the right side
(I mean) of life...

what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
- you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost?

Always (Nothing.) look on the right side of life...

Nothing will come from nothing ya know what they say?
Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin!
There ya go, see!

Always look on the right side of life...
(Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin! At same time)

There ya go, see!


I can hear you whistling!

Thank you Alejandra and you have a lovely weekend too

I choose to be positive! It is just too hard to be negative. Challenges are much easier with a positive attitude.

It's the way to be Glen

I needed this today, you are a star! From one survivor to another, keep going you can do it! Your support network look amazing as well! :)

Thank you Sue, I'm glad it helped.

A positive attitude can take you a long way! A negative one takes you nowhere!

Think positive and positive things will happen.

Yes this is so true
