Which side are you on?

 As we move through our journey we have to make choices about a lot of different things. So many choices every single day. Skinny latte or full flavored? Donuts or oatmeal? One of the most important choices we make is what to focus our energy on; positive or negative things. Swirling all around us every minute of the day is a kaleidoscope of positive and negative. Where we choose to focus our eyes (energy) determines our view of life. 

When we spend the majority of our time remembering or noticing every little thing that goes wrong, or bad, our lives seem 'bad' or negative. We get so bogged down in the negativity that the bright spots are diminished. When we turn our eyes to focus on the bright spots or positive things we are able to light up the negative points. Remember a single candle can light up an entire room! 

The fact is we have to be the candle in our own lives to drive out the negativity. Sometimes all it takes is to notice one small positive detail to change your perspective on the entire day. No matter how hard it seems to find something, there is always a positive in the day when you are looking for it. 

If you start each day with the promise to look for positiveness you WILL FIND it. It isn't to say that you will never encounter negative again, oh you will, but you will have a bank of positive to balance it out. Now your journey, while going in the same direction, has a new brightness, lightness, and happiness. The road that seemed dark and gloomy can transform if we only switch sides of the bus! 

Stay positive ya'll!
