the power of positive thinking.
there definitely is power in positive thinking. so, i'm surrounding myself with positive energy, good thoughts and all the love i can muster and i  am sending it your way. i'm not going to let life get me down. i need all the help i can get. i'm hoping that sending all these positive thoughts out into the universe is going to get you (you know who you are), through this. in the words of one of my very favorite willie nelson songs: you've got to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, latch on to the affirmative, don't mess with mister in-between.

what seems impossible one minute becomes, possible the next. just believe. i am going to.

remember just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.
when you're going through hell, just keep on going. finish each day and be done with it. you have done what you could. some doubts have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. tomorrow is a new day.  go with a spirit that fears nothing! you are the most positive person i know.
believe in yourself and all that you are. know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.

life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed.  this detour won't stop you.  we need you. we are here.

i love you... xo
