Positive Thoughts

LeVaughn @ Yes positivity attracts positivity. Sadly not all can be positive. There are many people with ongoing problems. Be they poverty, sick children, hunger, war situations with no end in sight and family members killed , grieving spouses and children, people who suffer Depression or Cancer and who find it
extremely hard to be cheerful of 'positive ' about life , those given a diagnosis of a serious life threatening disorder.
I presume I am being negative. The positivity message is a good one but most of the books written in California where sun shines brightly. I have found my best position in life is to be Realistic and to view situations as they are, and then try and accept. realism works best for me.
So does Gratitude and a belief that there is a better life hopefully awaiting me through Jesus who died for me,

Negativity has its place in this world LV, people don't know how or when to you use it..
Is mercy killing a suffering animal all negative ?

I agree with Butch...
We all have some negativity in ourselves, because of life experiences, circumstances, etc...

But, the aim is NOT to empower those negative thoughts by giving them more negative.
It's like adding fuel to a fire.

Instead, we should empower the positivity in our life in order to bring more of the same.

And, the most important, live in the NOW.

isn't what you are describing as someone being bi-polar?

This world is full of opposites that's how it operates, you need negative just like you need to connect the negative/earth HT lead to battery in your car;; if you don't hook your earth lead up in your car, your going no where.. Hey LV welcome to the blogs brother..

Reality, being truthful about our present problems or lack of a job, or a failed relationship, marriage,whatever needs to be dealth with head on. No pretending and acting positive. This positive thing drives me mad.
The answer is to realise life is not easy it can be tough, Levaugn has realised that.
I really believe in reality, we can see the problems and deal with them as best we can, without being negative. Being positive is over done in many books nowadays mostly on self help shelves written by people who live in sunny countries and have lots of money. Be honest, Be as happy as you can be, but be true to the situation. Being positive is not always possible. I know I won't have anyone to agree with me. Being positive when you are anything but can put a great strain on the personality and nervous sysem.
Reality is the answer.

Positivity forced, I must be positive I will stay in my positive world, even though i can't pay the Gas/Electricity bill... NO
