Hey Folks…

More thought here, to shift my negative thoughts in a positive way

The sun was bright.. Im thankful I could see it… gleaming through the pretty trees, outside my window…

My place is a mess.. I’m glad I have the ability to tidy-up… (if not the energy)...

I am still nervous afraid and feeling negative about my new job… But again, I am thankful to have a job… I am thankful for an optimism…. that might allow me to approach it with hopes of possibly coming to enjoying it…

I am grateful my Grandmother is coming into town today.. and that we will get to visit… And I am even MORE grateful for my assertiveness that got me off the hook…from having her visit my messy place…

(Being it was a surprise-visit… as she sprung the news on me Friday evening, Itold her our-right that it’s too messy here.. and I didn’t want to spend my entire weekend cleaning.. Let’s meet up elsewhere.. and go see the sights…as we visit…

I am grateful for my breath.. that I can breathe…
That I was able to stop smoking all those years ago…

I am grateful for my CATS.. as they always manage to cheer me up!!
THey make me laugh… and I am so THANKFUL that they are healthy and happy!! :-)

I am GRATEFUL that I did take a walk today!!
I was in such a funk, as you may detect from my tone in the INTRO…
and Entry #1…

Yes .. I did walk.. I am GRATEFUL I was able to walk..
and I am honestly THANKFUL all of the little “blessings” that go into something as simple as walking… (breathing.. joint-health etc)...

Lastly I am THANKFUL that it has improved my mood…
That the period of walking was spent mostly “in the moment”...
or focused on positives… not simply dwelling on the negatives!!

And now I just need to make myself get up… and WALK more often!!

Sincerely
Dave

I am thankful that I have been able to find a job…
As I have begun a new job.. I have many fears.. And I have already encountered annoyances… Let me put those vibes aside..
And just simply say…I AM GRATEFUL to once again be working!!!

I am THANKFUL to again have a JOB!!
*I am THANKFUL to be able to work…!!
**I am THANKFUL to be earning some income…that I don’t have to continue to spend all of my savings!!!!

I am THANKFUL that I have a comfortable living situation…!!
And that I have been able to continue to live here…!!
I am THANKFUL for the place I live… and for the things I have!!
(I don’t show that GRATITUDE often, but I am GLAD I am able to do so now..!!)....

I am THANKFUL that my job will allow me to maintain my comforts…
Things that help to enrich my life.. such as my computer..
and internet…

I am THANKFUL for my GOOD HEALTH..!!

I am GRATEFUL for having good food to eat…!!

I am THANKFUL for my sense of sight and hearing…
and for all of the other senses that I take for granted…

Again.. in showing my gratitude for my good health..
I am going to take a walk, in a moment

I am THANKFUL to have HOPE that a walk will help to improve my mood..!!

Hey Folks,

I am taking on this goal, as my current patterns of thought are only helping to keep me down…

No doubt, there may be some valid elements in my fears and my outlook… but that does not mean I need to only focus on those… and to have them govern my entire outlook on life…

So I plan to continually make lists of things big and small.. To make note of the positives… or the positive side of what I’ve viewed as negatives in my world…

I will allow myself to do this as often as I have those pessimistic, negative thoughts!!

Lastly, I add that I am REALLY appreciative of cheers, and comments.. And I THANK YOU in advance!!
Dave
