A complete stranger recently referred to me as a “glass almost full kinda gal.” As one of my loyal blog followers, they only “know” me through my posts. This was an amazing revelation to me, but a thrilling and heartfelt one as that is exactly the motivation and inspiration for my blog. I believe in the glass half full vs half-empty outlook on life.
For blog post fodder, I specifically look for things, events, and people that inspire me in my daily life. You can find some of these featured along my sidebar, with links to their areas of expertise/talent. I admit some days the good stuff is hard to find and so I become motivated about something/someone annoying, so the post comes out as a rant, but the good outweighs the bad. At least that’s my intention, to feature the glass-half-full people.
I will be the first to admit and am immensely grateful for the fact that my life is pretty darn good. It is definitely half full instead of half empty. With six sweet grandchildren, 3 awesome sons, 2 loving daughters-in-law, and one great husband…what more can a girl ask for? Christmas is over, but did you notice that sounds like….” and a partridge in a pear tree?”
A glass almost-full kinda gal, I love it, in fact, I think it would make a great subheading for my blog. What do you think?
I don’t want to be seen as a pessimist, although I have had enough negative things happen to me to make me that way. When I look at the two glasses, here is how I think: If I am pouring the drink, it is half full; If I am drinking the drink, it is half empty. Logical, right?
I thought you were positive, and it makes it easier for health pro’s to work with you, and I think it also healthier. I am a firm believer in the wisdom of Laughter is the Best Medicine. If all we control is our attitude, then let’s make it one that people want to be around.
