Positivity

Midnight musings: Positivity is a key in life to seeing the best in things Open the door and your see your world as it can be No matter the happenings, take time to look at uplifting sights and activity To stay focused and verbalize hopes, dreams and ambitions To support, praise and encourage others with validation Positivity is to take a moment to smile at strangers To keep trying a little or a lot to get through things that happen Even starting with a breath and a step, after a problem It is to take action when you can and seek the best in yourself to share To let go of the curse of complaints to yourself or to another To try to be uplifting in circumstances of all kinds To be willing to make changes where they need to be made To be grateful for whatever it is, no matter now small it may be To hold onto faith even in the hardest times when life feels upside-down Positivity can be achieved in minutes and even with small steps To make the effort to separate from the turmoil in the world To keep trying, even new things that were never tried before now Positivity can bring fulfillment to any kind of day, a flower, the sky or moon It will shine the way through tears, pain, beyond obstacles in your way Never let go of positivity; it is a light that shines within you For your life to be worthwhile, special, all that you want it to be Embrace the light and not let it dim, it can travel far, person to person It is only negativity that will dim such a light for you and for others Do not let yourself be consumed and clouded in that type of darkness It will settle and be like quicksand, keeping all stuck in one place The gift of life is wrapped with positivity; smile and open it now!
