Following on from my last post about every cloud having a silver lining, I also believe in looking for the good in people and in situations in my life.
It would be very easy for me with my mental health issues to be negative and pessimistic about life, but I steadfastly refuse to think that way and I go out of my way to be optimistic and a positive force for good in my life. This often means I butt heads with my mother, whom is a pessimist and never sees things from my positive perspective. She is negative towards me no matter what I do in my life, so I have learned the hard way, not to take on board her attitude and live my life in my optimistic happy, positive way.
My friends see me as a strong positive force and Russell in particular, is always saying that I am a strong, positive force of nature that he finds powerful. I consciously look for the good in people and always do find it. I strongly believe that if we look for the good in things, that is what we will find, and that if we look for the bad and negative, then we will find that too. This bring the case isn’t it more fulfilling and pleasurable to see the good in life and strive to find it. Far more bearable and positive than constantly being disappointed with life because you only see bad and horrible occurrences. My specialists also see me as a positive person who thrives through being optimistic.
I am basically a happy person, whom is content with her life and wealthy and blessed in the quality of friendships and relationships with others. I am genuinely grateful for what God has provided me with. Over the past year a long term friendship ended with someone I really cared for, who could not see how her negativity and pessimistic attitude were causing her all sorts of trouble. She resented my optimistic attitide and reaped a lot of heartache for those who were trying to care for her. In the end her negative attitude was so nasty I walked away. She constantly was looking for the bad in everything and being surprised when she found it.
Ive learned the hard way to associate with people with positive and good intentions, as it makes life richer and more fulfilling. If you are a optimistic person like me, listen 🎶 to your gut intsincts. If someone makes you feel good and has good intentions, your gut instincts feel like floating on a breeze that means you are on the same wavelength if someone make your gut muscles tense and your chest constrict be wary, with that type of person, as their lower frequency negativity will clash with your optimism. I have learned the hard way that you can’t change a negative, pessimistic person to become positive and optimistic like yourself. You can’t always avoid this type of person, but you can change how you deal with them. Don’t give a lot of your time and energy to them, limit it and mine for good. The good people in your life are priceless ❤. Dedicate your time and energy to the good people and your life will grow more positive and fulfilling than you could ever imagine.
Life can be beautiful if we look for the good in everything……..
You are a true optimistic person and it is lovely to be in your company. I may have said it before but you are a great counsellor and hopefully you are helping a lot of people on your blog. Keep up the good work and stay happy.

Hi Kaye
Just read your blog on positivity. You are correct. If you look for positivity you will find it. If you look for negativity, you will find that also.
Not many of us in this life are blessed with a charmed life, however, like your previous blog there is always a silver lining and rainbows to chase 🌈.
Yesterday l went to check my tattslotto ticket and l won $7:55 cents. The owner said “ oh, it’s only $7.55 cents”.
Well that $7:55 took me to woolies where l bought a packet of rolls with litre of milk and some ham and a tomatoe.
I had a toastier with coffee last night, and this morning l had French toast with a hot chocolate. 😋 😋 yummy.
Life couldn’t be better.
Would it have been nice if l won 1st prize. Absolutely. I could share with all my friends. But l also enjoy the little things, and they make me happy also. From Monty Python – Life of Brian. Always look on the bright side of life da da, da da dada dada.
Love you always
Susanna

Hi Kaye….it is true,having a positive outlook on life is helpful…however,humans feel a whole range of emotions, because we are emotional beings.It is not possible to feel positive all the time…but we can feel gratitude for our life and know that sorrow and hardship are for most people temporary… It is also true,that we are all different…we are a tapestry of a huge range of emotions,skills,talents and offerings..none is more important than the other.If we can learn acceptance, forgiveness,and compassion for all beings…then we have indeed learned what we came here for.We are all on a journey… constantly learning and adjusting according to our circumstances. A lovely piece of writing
