Celeste, I know this is not really on the subject, but I have to comment on how nice it is to hear such a positive attitude. I live by trying to always look at the positives. Even though I get laughed at a lot, I do like you suggest here, every morning. I look in the mirror and speak out loud the things I want to happen. And you know what?....It works more often then it doesn't it. Besides, it's much better than dwelling on the negatives. I've had plently of bad things happen to me in my life as I'm sure everyone on this list has, but I refuse to make them the focus of my life. Thank you for the positive person that you are. All of us here can learn from your example. If you think positive.....you will get positive! Jacki

Now I know it is hard to keep saying that, putting up slips of paper on your car visor, bathroom mirror, etc. I did this when I quit smoking and as I smoked, I read the affirmation. It took awhile; however, it did happen for me. Remember who wom the grand prize at the confeence???

I still desperately want to find my grandmother born somewhere in the Azores ca 1850-55. I am still keeping a positive attitude but it has led me positively nowhere! "E" My search for my ancestors has taught me that taking one day at a time and also keeping a positive attitude seem to be rewarded in my searches by my finding things without knowing where to look. I truly believe there is a hand guiding me and I have no idea whose hand it is. Celeste -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
