What are your positive thoughts for your family, friends, school, job, colleagues, employees, partners, girlfriend, boyfriend? Just wanna know your positiveness about life. What makes you feel or think positive? is that your culture, society, your condition, or something else? Do you have any experience that you are thinking positive but still things are going bad with you?

I guess by nature, Filipinos are born positive-thinkers. Over the years, we have experienced natural calamities, crisis and what-have-you's that you can name. If there is one good thing about it is that our culture moves us to think problems lightly, no matter how hard the situation is. On a personal level, there are my positive thoughts: FAMILY: My daughters are healthy, they are ever so cheerful, and they always got their way! They knew how to deal with present situations in life as maturely as possible, though they are only 8 years old! (they're twins, btw). Though my mother suffers an advanced stage of Alzheimer's, my sisters, brothers and I work on rounds to take care of her. This basic institution is never compromised. FRIENDS:I only have few true friends to consider, yet, I value their friendship since they are the ones who give me strength when all else fail. JOB: i consider my career as God-sent. It let me develop my talent/s, let me voice my opinion while still being humble. The financial freedom it gives me makes me experience life in a much comfortable way. MYSELF: Problems come and go. Though at times I think that I have reached my meltdown,I still manage to bounce back. Not in a snap though, but at least, I would like to believe that I bounce back high! Thank you for this discussion! It makes me think of positive things even more...just when I needed it most!

Hello There! Hmmm…. Let me think: For family, good thing is we get along just fine. Me and my siblings including my cousin are grown up now that we find it easy not to fight since we are getting mature now. We love each other as a family and I am thankful that I have them in my life. Even if we go through in hard times, we stay intact and hopeful of the better future. For friends, Others may have issues with their friends or they have not met their true friends… Not me, I found my true friends from high school and college days. I don’t have lots of true friends but I am telling you, they are true to me and they are always there for me no matter what happens. For me, true friends tells you directly if you did something wrong even if you will feel bad about it, they just want you to be straighten up. For my country, we are happy people… every country has misfortunes or economy crisis but still we manage to get through life no matter what. Myself – well… hmmm… I am just taking it slow… aiming for my dreams in my life and waiting to be with the love of my life… hehehe Goodluck and thanks for the discussion! Happy Mylotting! Cheers!
