I love your attempt to bring positive thoughts to this group. Maybe we can all follow your lead.
Usually, the members here are very encouraging, but sometimes a little nudge like yours helps.
You are surely amazing. Your strength and resilience are astonishing. Your family must have lots of love and care for one another.
Thanks for reminding me that sometimes, no matter how bad things seem, I need to just look up and think of the great things that I have been blessed with... friends like you for example.
Love you and God bless.

I still have a lot to learn about dealing with my limitations but overcoming what I can, not least of which is remaining positive when things are not easy. Thanks for the uplifting post. :)

Counting my blessings and my pills. Good days followed by bad, my own fault. Actually on the bad days, I can at least take a bath in a clean tub, wash my face in a clean sink, and other things, or take my tea in a clean room. Not so bad after all! My plants will just have to forgive me, but they can't all be cared for at the same time. When my "to do" list gets too long, I just erase it. One way to discover priorities! b.

Elinora, don't let us fool you Hun, we all had to learn the "inning positive" even when you know it's a bad day!! I think most of us still to this day do! But that is just one more reason I feel we are a phenomenal group, because we are real!! Just being in a mode where you can even say "I'm learning" is already being a positive trooper!! Xo's MeLisa
