Positivity ....

What is positivity?

A decision I think...

Are people positive or optimistic by nature or is it a decision to become positive or optimistic?

I used to be a positive person, how or where did I lose that?

Did I wake up one day and decide that I wasn't going to look on the bright side of things anymore?

Where did I go?

What happened to me?

What happened to my spirit?

I think I need to make steps to become more positive... but where do I begin?

Do I begin by being thankful?

Do I begin by being hopeful?

My newest quest is positivity ...

hmmmm???

silver linings

gratefulness

bless my enemies

okay then

I love my family so much and am searching once again for my faith.

hmmmm ....

searching for my faith?? I think it has always been there but I've chosen to ignore it or allow it to sit on the back burner ...

faith is a choice and I am choosing to practice it starting right now.

God Bless You

I just want to say ...

What do I want??

I want to learn how to love me enough to allow love back into my life.

I want to grow old with somebody.

I am so lonely.

There has to be somebody out there.

Sark ....

I really like what she has to say... I began a workshop last month. I did the first two days of a 30 day "adventure" and then stopped ... why?

Am I afraid of what I will discover about myself?

Am I afraid to become happy? satisfied? joyful?

Was it too hard to find the time?

What in the heck is wrong with me?

Good gosh ...

ENOUGH!

I need to take charge, but how?

I love me?

I don't love me?

I love parts of me?

I hate parts of me?

I love all of me?

What is it?

I want joy in my life. I want peace in my life. I want peace in my life. I want life in my life.

Okay excuses ...

1) no time

2)no energy

3)no money

4)... hmmm

is that all ...

okay so I got interrupted so now I continue.

My 15 year old son thinks he should be allowed to do whatever he wants whenever he wants.

He feels that my expectation that he clean his room and follow through with his household chores is too demanding. He has gone out and not come home, until I've gone searching for him and found him. He has said "Why do I even stay here. I should just leave and go to a friend's house and stay there until you aren't so ruling and demanding." "None of my friends have to ask to go places, they are all allowed to drink, they don't have to help out as much as I do ( he basically has 2 chores - doing the dishes some nights and taking the garbage to the curb once a week. ).

I'm so frustrated.

I don't know what to do.

I love this boy more than anything, and I tell him all the time.

What's a single mom to do. I can't be home all the time, I have to work. I don't have another parent here to back me up, it's just me.

I just don't know what to do anymore.
