Staying Positive

Things that have gone right lately. My attempt to be a more optimistic person.

I will post every day, at the end of the day (or the next morning), about the good things that have happened to me in that day. The hope is that I will begin to be generally happier and more positive, rather than focusing on the negative as I tend to do.

 

If you would like to join me, e-mail me or leave a comment on one of my posts and we can talk about adding you as a poster here. I think that it would be really cool if this were to become a multi-person endeavor, if others are interested in helping to make it one.

October 24, 2006

Music: Barenaked Ladies Maroon
Reading: Rowlandson, Miller (ed.) The Apocalyptic Jesus: A Debate
Current stress level (scale of 1-10): 8
Quote:
As she was wont, th' imagination
Into most lovely labyrinths will be gone,
And they shall be accounted poet-kings
Who simply tell the most heart-easing things.
O may these joys be ripe before I die.
- "Sleep and Poetry," Keats

Good things that happened today:
1. Practice energized me, rather than making my day worse as I had thought it would.
2. Chocolate ice cream.
3. My lesson was postponed, so I could take a badly needed nap in the afternoon.
4. Ate a salad with dinner.
5. My broken epee is fixed!
