Juse ONE great year

Was flitting through Blogland on my way here when I happened upon daytimer09's latest blogpost ... I then got some stuff into my head that MUST o u t before I'll be able to do what I actually logged on for.

At the end of daytimer09's Gym Intimidation and Special Power Wish post he asks "What super-power would you like to have?" (He is referring to non-super/bat- /man or woman, Mr Fantastic, etcetera, and I'm using my creative license and putting just a tiny-wee spin on it)

MY SUPER-POWER WOULD BE to sprinkle positivity back into folks thinking / view on life. For me there is very little that is m o r e painful than listening to someone bitch and moan about things (going wrong in their lives, getting them down ... etcetera ) that are well within their or sphere of control to fix. (be it being at the wrong end of a bad relationship / being mis-used or feeling stepped-on / I-hate-my-job ... w h a t - ever, it may be )

Negative thinking does not/should not really require some kind of magical intervention - all we need / need to do, to mention but a few, is: 

a realisation of who we are (and who we do not want to be

a realisation of where we are in our lives (and where we don't want to be or end up

knowing our worth and what we deserve (and what we don't)

knowing what we will and will not tolerate

the realisation that what we think, we become'

IF steps 1 through 5 are followed by minor changes in our thought pattern and outlook

and a constructive a plan is drawn up (listing steps/things we need to do in order to eventually get there! ) - then DIOS MIO, we WILL all get there!!!

...A wee bit o' fairy dust would be sooo very useful in E X T R E M E cases, though 

At the moment my fairy dust is my positivity, can-do attitude & outlook and leading (and as living) by example. The rub-off has yielded rather fair results and the hit/miss ratio is > than 50%. Still ...

You know how it is said that N O T H I N G we do is ever completely selfless ? ... Well, in this case, I want to know what it feels like to have just ONE GOOD YEAR when others' negativity does not get me down on that ONE day of the year when I just need to 'be' and possibly I need someone else's positivity to pull me through. Is it selfish to feel the way I do ?
