Positivity is an ongoing project
It's been five years. I'm trying the LJ thing again.
First thing I did (once I got my password reset and my account unlocked) was go through my old posts. After reading them, I deleted every last one. Not all of them merited it, but I want to start fresh. I don't really like who I was five years ago. All I did was complain and pretend like my life was awful. It wasn't really, but I was convinced it was, so I made myself miserable.
I'm much happier with myself now, and I think it's because for the last couple years I've been making a concerted effort to be more positive. So I'm going to take this blog in the complete opposite direction from what it was before. I'm going to write about things that make me happy. Good things that have happened and good things I hope will happen. Hopefully I can keep up the positivity (and keep up the posting).
