Staying in the Positive

[caressa]

Have a friend who looks at life the same way as the photo below does. For me, it is too negative. If I think negative, I attract it too me. It has been my experience, that when I live in the moment and not project into the future, I can walk in faith. Things just never turn out as badly as I thought they would when I take my Higher Power with me on my daily journey. I don't have that "Why me?" attitude and can accept things more readily. When I get that feeling, I have to ask myself "Why not me?"

That prepares me for what ever comes my way, positive or negative. I don't go looking for things to happen. I try to live in today, and when I encounter negative, I ask myself, "What can I do to change it?"

Love the quote, still rings true in 2016. Lest I forget, what brought me to the doors of recovery will take me back out if I don't deal with it. Like this poor guy, it will trip me up and I could end up going back out.

My thoughts are more powerful that I realized. What we put out we get back, so I need to be mindful of what I wish for.

A friend told me many years ago, "Put it out to the Universe and see what you get back."
