Sending a little positive energy...

Sep 04, 2009 22:42

Over the last several weeks I've been reading people's LJ and FB posts and it seems everyone I know is really going through a rough time. Don't get me wrong, I've certainly had my own struggles. Fortunately they've only been financial... which sucks, but hopefully it will pass with time. I have my health and feel like I'm making a difference in my own small way and that keeps me going.

To all of you who are hurting and struggling, know I am thinking of you. Remember to take time for yourself to do something you really love. Even if it's something small and only for a small part of the day, do it. Do something silly. Meditate. Go work out. Try something that used to make you happy as a kid. It might not solve the problem, but it will give you a moment of peace and redirect your thoughts. Cheesy though it may sound, I'm a strong believer in the power of positive thinking.

Here are some more equally irritating but relevant cliches from an incurable optimist: Everything happens for a reason; Every cloud has a silver lining; What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Sending much love.
