All is well!

Sometimes, I tend to look at things negatively. I show a positive attitude outwardly, but in the recesses of my mind I feel impending doom. Most of the time things work out and I feel ashamed of my doubt. It's like when things go well, I'm waiting for what I call "the other shoe". This implies to me that since things are positive something surely will happen to ruin it all. I know it's wrong and I will admit that these doubts and anxieties are few and far apart now. They happen when they happen. 

I now am relying more on faith and Jesus Christ. It helps me to maintain a more positive attitude. He keeps me grounded in all I do and I know that I can accomplish more actions. I am grateful for all I have in this life, especially for my family, friends and acquaintances. I know getting more involved in activities and just doing stuff helps me to be more positive. I'm not one to sit around too long. Losing weight has changed me in that way.

Today, I sit at my baby sister's house, helping her to recuperate from surgery. It was a good thing for me to be here. I had let things build up too much and it has been helpful to not only Suzie, but to me as well. I've been able to devote time to others and think of someone besides myself. It's more important to me to share my abilities, though they can be limited, with others and shine my little candle. Taking my light off under the bushel, and sharing it with others. I feel better just knowing that I can be a better person. I've spent so many years dwelling on things that profit me nothing and this last year I've been trying to do more to help me and Gary feel better physically. It's working ok and we've been able to get out more and do things I never thought I would be able to do. 

It's been a blessing. I've enjoyed being more lively and being with my family. I love my life right now and it can only get better. Make your days better by helping others, maintaining a positive attitude and just keeping yourself active and busy. Love to all....Good bye!
