Corporate greed.
Death and destruction.
The most depressing stories make the headlines of the media and I'm a little weary of it. It turns out that I'm not alone.
Come on, Get Happy!!This new internet based trend, called brightsiding, is the philosophy of viewing the world optimistically and is the norm.
Of course-- as most topics do, this one reminds me of a song. You may recognize the tune from the Partridge Family and isn't the way it was originally recorded for the pilot. These lyrics are perfect for an earworm for the rest of the day and as mood music for the venture.
The assignment for beginning to brightside is to recognize those things you are grateful for and say it aloud or in writing.
With that in mind- I have a quick list of gratitude.
1. I'm secure in my family lineage-- I AM a child of God.
2. My husband is my best friend.
3. My grandmother, who is sitting beside me, needle pointing one of my designs.
4. Rain- just enough to have washed away the pollen.
5. Zest for life.
6. Red. Orange. Yellow. Green. Blue. Violet.
It also reminds me of another favorite!
Those funny Monty Python boyz!
