And so we begin....

Well, here I am, launching into cyber space, typing to no one in particular, but hoping in time someone out there will find me and think that what I have to say is interesting and helpful.  Even better, maybe a bunch of someones will share with me what THEY have to say!  It's a new year and I imagine many of us are thinking about making some changes in how we think, feel, and behave.  In my own journey I have found the ability to "look on the bright side" an invaluable gift.  Don't get me wrong, I can put my cranky pants on one leg at a time like everyone else, but overall I am able to find the silver lining in things--a skill cultivated through years of practice.  So, from time to time I will write about situations and people and events that have required me to change my perspective, and hopefully this will build a community of people that can contribute to the discussion and share experiences from around the world!  Let's face it, the need to reframe things from negative to positive is something we all have in common and something that does not usually come naturally.  So stay tuned, keep reading, and share your thoughts!
