I've been feeling pretty negative lately so this is just the boost I need :-) This afternoon, instead of going up to blog, I kept my mum (who's feeling really ill) company, tidied the kitchen and cooked dinner to counter the unhappy thoughts. It worked because knowing I'd made her feel even a little better made me feel more positive!

It took the stress off me and I had a nice night! A quote (not the sort you asked for, but a positive thinking one at least!): "When we are faced with challenges in life, we can let them define us and hold us down or we can turn them into our greatest strengths." (I think it's Tracy Anderson).

My husband and I were in Cabo this past week and one day, it was really overcast and nasty looking outside. My husband was all upset and wanted to stay in our room all day and watch TV. I told him that he had to think positively- even with less than stellar weather, we were on vacation...in Cabo! I made him get outside and sure enough it ended up being one of the best days we had there! When you embrace the cards that are handed to you, you'll always come out on top.

I think doing something nice for someone else boosts your spirit, which just shines through the rest of your mood. Being selfless just radiates - it's a win/win for you and whoever else's life you just touched! Great points – especially the Operation Beautiful suggestion!
