CSftS: Think Positive Giveaway

Today I am focusing on Positive Thoughts.  This in in conjunction with my Dear.  Again, I told you he is down to one job now.  (I know I keep saying this...but after 6 years of two jobs this is an amazing time for us.)  But since he stopped the second job we have had several lil things happen.  I messed up the checking account (hey it does happen), two cars broke down (they are back up and running somewhat), the washing machine would not drain (a stuck cloth napkin) and the such.  Well, Dear looked at these things and felt guilty that he stopped job #2.  Thinking the money was what was important.  I looked at them and thanked God and Dear for all the fixes.  He had the money in his pocket to fix my major checking mess up.  He had the ability to fix the cars and the washer himself.  It took time and work but Dear was available to help get things up and going.  Dear was getting so depressed and mad, where I was trying to remind him to see the good and the way things are working out.

We have to look at the positive of life.  Photographs are positive prints not the negative or black n' white.  I have been reading Chicken Soup for the Soul:  Think Positive a lot this last week too.  Seeing how others are looking at the good in life.  Loving that I am counting my blessings.  Thrilled that I have Dear at home with me in the evenings and weekends.  This last weekend he was here to see his Grandbabes when they visited.  Like so many will say, it is that you have food on your plate not that the food is not the richest there is.  A blessing is just that, blessed.  A gift from a friend, family member, stranger even,  A gift that has made your life richer.  It may be that you take the time to see those beautiful leaves swirling around you showing off the beautiful colors of the changing season.  Or that you have the ability to take time to rest with your family around you.  Of course we all want the windfall blessings.  But if we remember to think positive then we will start seeing all that is in our lives making us 'richer' and happier.

Here is the blessing I get to share.  Chicken Soup for the Soul: Think Positive has 3 copies of the book just to share.  Yes, give away to 3 of my readers.  All I ask is that you leave me a Positive comment.  Any thing you wish to share.  I am willing to let you share all the positive thoughts you want to share.  Unlimited!  Each one is an entry.  Make sure I have your email too so I can contact the winners.  I will announce the winners in two weeks by email.  And as always, thanks so so so much for the Chicken Soup for the Soul/Shelton Interactive for sharing with me and you!

  6. This is open worldwide right? Yes! That's thinking positively..

    One attractive Filipino trait is that even through hardships, trials and pain, we never fail to SMILE and to keep on fighting.

    Thinking positively is what motivates us to move forward and gives us the strength and hope to overcome every obstacle!
