Up4Dsn Each of us knows that life is often like a roller coaster. There are ups and downs. The key is to remain POSITIVE during all parts of the ride.
Check out my girl Miss P’s video discussing the importance of maintaining a POSITIVE state of mind.

Being positive and staying positive at all times is extremely hard. We are all human, but, we are not all perfect. We truly like to believe that we are but we are not. In my opinion, staying positive takes a strong mind. Is it hard to do? No, but it can be a challenge. I work in a bank, I deal with peoples finances, I come across a lot of angry people. I have learned over the course of my career, that no matter how you are feeling or what you are going through, it can ALWAYS be worse. I am the type of person that has a hard time "hiding my emotions", therefore, I keep a constant smile on my face. I find that when I smile, my voice smiles, the customer smiles, and we are all happy (LOL). Honestly though, there are days where things for me can just turn dark. I do have those days where I just don't feel like being bothered and want to curl up in my rocking chair and get lost in a book. How do I "turn that frown upside down"? I think of all the love and support that I have in this world from family and friends. I knoiw that I am very fortunate and I realize that there are people out there that don't even have a home to go to. I am very thankful for everything I have in life, and THAT is what gets me through my "funk". Also, there isn't a mood that a little Mariah Carey can't fix (LOL).
Three positive things that happened to me just today….(1) I woke up to see another beautiful day of my life to spend with my family. (2) I walked my daughter to the school bus stop. (3) I shared great laughs with my best friend while at work.
Life is extremely precious to me. I know what it is like to suffer loss. I know what it is like to out live a child. I know what it is like to lose a parent. I know what it is like to be in physical and emotional pain. I know what it is like to struggle with finances. I know what it is like to lose a house you put ALL your lifes savings into. I know what it is like to be out of a job for more than 6 months. Bottom line….I know the "negative"!! BUT…..the "positive" will ALWAYS dominate that "negative", you just have to believe it.
WOW Sherry!
That comment was amazing. What you said is so true. Remaining positive at all times isn't an easy thing to do. Yet, if our mind is strong we can overcome the negative and thrive on the POSITIVE.
Thank you so much for sharing as much as you did with us. It means more than you know!
