Since I'm on a roll...

I'm feeling pretty good so a few other things just came to me that make me feel even better.

Yesterday, I ran into some friends as I was jogging along the lake. I was happy to see them as they are a nice family and in particular one of the kids is a good friend of Sunshine's. But as soon as I started talking to my friend, her mom, I felt bombarded by her negative energy. It instantly reminded me of how she always complains about how busy she is and the lack of time and this and that.

The good thing is that I don't really let that get to me other than making a mental note not to spend too much time with her. But yesterday it dawned on me that by thinking even that I was, according to AH literally evoking negativity from her and moreover, drawing more of it to me in others. In other words, sure I can feign to be Little Miss Positive, but the second I am unable to see the same in others, I am far from. And in fact, attracting negative to me. Wow. When I realized that I realized that I always focus on others' negativity. I do it in a way that makes me feel detached and actually better about myself. I see them as not really trying and wonder if they only knew how negative they were and how they were creating more of it in their lives by focussing on it.

And yet here I was focussing on theirs! Sure, I wasn't pointing it out. And I wasn't getting dragged into 'bitch sessions'. But so what! I was looking at their negativity. Only their negativity.

Holy cow! This was big!

So, in my head I made a list of positive aspects of my friend and her family. And the thign is I remembered that she got excited when I talked about going Salsa dancing. She lit up! And she thought it would be fun to go! She, who I had pegged as not doing anything for herself had told me it would be fun to go!

And she always looks pretty. She takes such nice care of herself, getting her nails done, her hair done. So she must like herself more than I had thought.

And her family is so rambunctiously fun! The kids are so happy and friendly and truth be told I love the chaos they brign with them. It reminds me of when I was a kid. With four of us it was always so much fun running around, especially at night. And there were seven of them! Great kids!

My friend has done a great job with them!

I am so happy to now see the positve aspects of her.

And I suspect that now I will see even more ;)

p.s. a couple other things that I 'switched around':

1. Junk email isn't that bad and to be honest, had I not sent out all those flyer faxes I wouldn't have had the success I had with my product! It's a great way to connect with someone who wants just that!

2. Why did I lie in bed feeling guilty about the amount of time I spent on yesterday's blog? Hmmmm....in need of a focus wheel perhaps on time? Or maybe just a reminder of how fun it is! I opted for fun :)
