Greetings all!

Hope you're all well.

I thought it might be a nice idea to have at least one thread at the forum totally dedicated to hope and positivity!

I may be a dreamer but I'm not the only one.

So, feel perfectly free to share your thoughts, quotes, jokes, poems and links.

Anything at all. I don't mind.

Just as long as it is hopeful and positive.

Have a great day!
LOVE IT!

Incidentally, @metis grandson came to him and asked, "Grandpa, I hear how you call Grandma "Pumpkin, lovidove, honey, sweetie pie" and more. How did you keep that love so alive after soooo many years of marriage?".

Metis answered, "I forgot her name 5 years ago and I'm afraid to ask her". :facepalm: :D

EDITED:

PS... Glory to God in the Highest and Peace and goodwill towards all men

Is this called "preachy humor"?

Hey, don't quit your day job! :p

Isn't your thread's title an invitation....a challenge to
introduce negativity? I'm hopeful & positive about it.

The title was tongue-in-cheek to a large extent.

I try to respond to all negativity with compassion because I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed by negativity!

Thanks for your input!

Enjoy the rest of your browsing!

This article is from Tiny Buddha ...

The problem with happiness is that no one really knows exactly what it is. It’s intangible, even a little mysterious, yet still we all want to be happy. But trying to be happy is like trying to get to sleep; the harder you try, the less likely it is to happen.

So four years ago, on New Years Eve, I made the pledge to myself to stop trying to be happy.

Don’t get me wrong. I wasn’t miserable. I was just spending too much time thinking about whether or not I was happy—even though neither I, nor anyone I knew really, could give a clear answer about what this meant.

So instead of saying to myself, This year I’m going to be happy, I said, This year I’m going to try new things. I’m going to meet new people. I’m going to go to new places. I’m going to push myself out of my comfort zone.

And if I’m not happy, well, I’m not happy, but at least I’ve had some interesting experiences.
