One thing might be wrong with the positive thinking mantra, at least for me it was. It is hard to think positive when all hell is breaking loose around you. Another way to look at it is have more of a loving heart. This seems easier for me.

Not talking about acting sugary sweet all the time, this is phony and no one believes it, but in your heart, remember love first especially when dealing with jerks. You don't know WHY they act like they do, and if you send them a good, loving or positive thought instead of that negative angry thought....it makes you feel less cranky, used, hurt and just miserable.

Sometimes we use the word love frivolously which takes about the meaning of it. It isn't always about romance or loving that order of toxic great tasting fries, rather it is goodness and kindness and emotional and yes spiritual. In my humble opinion, this is why many say much love, love and blessings, and all that jazz. They are trying to stay out of the negative crap that surrounds them.

It is a journey. Today and for the last couple of days, I myself haven't felt "loving" rather the term "Cranky old lady" is much more fitting. This, I blame on current "energies" though who knows what all that really is either.

Good luck on your journey and yes, God Bless
