Sometimes being positive isn't easy..............................

I am a generally "happy" person and I try to be as positive as I can. Sadly, when I am surrounded by negativity I tend to jump on the Negative Nancy bandwagon.... so I need a litte reminder of the following:

Attitudes are contagious. Are yours worth catching?
~Dennis and Wendy Mannering


The soul does not absorb negativity by accident, always by choice.
  ~Dodinsky,



Optimist: someone who isn't sure whether life is a tragedy or a comedy but is tickled silly just to be in the play.  ~Robert Brault


The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it.
~C.C. Scott


Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same.
~Francesca Reigler


If you don't get everything you want, think of the things you don't get that you don't want.
 ~Oscar Wilde


A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
~Herm Albright, quoted in Reader's Digest, June 1995


A friend will remind you that assumptions born of malice are better dealt with by gleefully sticking your tongue out. 
~Dodinsky

Whenever you fall, pick something up.
~Oswald Avery



Success is due less to ability than to zeal.
~Charles Buxton


Misery is a communicable disease.
~Martha Graham
