I, like so many of my fellow eBrandoners, find myself falling victim to the negativity bug. Well, I am hoping this thread will be your cure! I am challenging everyone to post only positive things in here, no matter the subject.  
 
I'll start: I love that the sun is shining and the official start to summer is just days away.

I love the peace that gardening gives me and the smell after a thunderstorm.  

I love that my kids are so excited that the school year is almost over and summer holidays are starting soon (plus no packing lunches) : )

I am grateful for what I have and negative experiences have only made me learn more. Keeping happy and positive brings enjoyment to life.

I am happy that the rain last night filled up my rain barrels so I can keep watering my garden!

....I am impressed by many of today's youth. They are intelligent, helpful and unafraid to challenge the status quo.  
 

I am happy that with all the negativity in the world, there are folks who can be counted on to see and point out positives.

For the love of family, friends, coworkers, summer!!

There are still lots of kind people in the world always willing to help others. I just wish i could do more.

I'm happy that it's finally Friday! Been a bit of a long week. Doesn't hurt that it's also payday!  
 
Have a great day everyone! Thanks for sharing your positive thoughts. Puts one in a good mood to start the day.

...... Today is graduation day for someone dear to me. As excited as I am for her it must pale in comparison to her excitement regarding her future. Off to university to study in a field she LOOOOOOOOVES.  
 
Any one else enjoy that feeling you get when you complete a project, whatever it be? We put the finishing touches on a hand made anniversary gift and an item for raffle for a local charity. Heavy sigh

I woke up still breathing.

It's FRIDAY!!!!! Also my cat is happy it's Friday because he doesn't have to be home alone during the day on the weekends

He's the best thing in my life. So happy he's mine! Xoxo

I love fishin for bass! TGIF!

.......makes me happy. Probably old news for many of you, but watch it anyway. It's short, succinct and .....well you'll see.  
 
The subject matter is not positive, but his statement about it certainly is. Good on ya Mr. Stewart.

It is a great start and this is going to be a positively charged week. Wishing abundance of happiness to everyone. Enjoyed spending the weekend with family, horses and just relaxing.

......go to Niagra Falls. Never been. Looking forward to it.  
 
 

That i have the ability mentally and physically to earn a good living. Which enables me to support myself.

I just read a thread on here so filled with hate, negativity and opinion bashing, I could physically feel a crushing weight come over me. SO....  
 
I am thankful for people who can give a smile and kind word to lift the spirits around them...and they don't even know it.  
 
Thank you OP.

when I am able to put a smile on someones face or make a small gesture to help someone!  
Oh and that I will be a Grandma very soon!

You will have an absolute blast! It is exciting, lovely and amazing!  
Make sure to get a Wego pass as that is the best way to move around and see things, it also gives you a chance to be in some air conditioning if you get too warm.  
You can pm me if you have any questions.

it's almost Friday again Also can't wait to go camping during my holidays....hopefully in Spruce woods...didn't book anything so hopefully it is slow during the week :/  
 
Also happy to read this thread I find the small details in others lives interesting.

Coffee is making me a very happy gal today! I am on some meds for an infection in my face, of all places, and they make me drowsy. Add in a bit of coffee, and all is good in the world.  
 
So, I am also grateful for modern medicine, as it's helping to heal me and make my face go back to normal size.

that makes me happy is seeing people walk their dogs and how the dogs smile when they are walking!

And, I love the wide selection of fruit this time of year brings. I could live off of nothing but!

Happy to be walking with my 4 year old granddaughter last night. We past by a neighbours who is an older gentleman and he has roses blooming right beside the sidewalk. We stopped to smell them and she looked up and me and said, "Mama, they smell so beautiful". Yes they did. Then went home to do some weeding and she helped me by burying any worms that I dug up so that the birds wouldn't get them. She was so intrigued by them and wasn't afraid to hold them. Love watching a 4 year old, being happy with little things, teaches us a lot.

It may not sound like a heading for the positivity discussion, but the outcome and how the community of flin flon came together to find this boy was amazing. All the people helping in any way they could no matter how big or small made one huge act of kindness from a whole town.

I was washing and eating some cherries about 15 minutes ago and the exact same thing went through my mind. That I can not live without fruit, specially berries and cherries, and melons and citrus, and...., and..., and....almost all of them are so good!  
Thanks god for creating them, and blessed me enough to be able to buy and be able to eat and be able to enjoy them.

....of wineries in the Niagra region and found some wonderful bottles of wine to take home.  
 
I think we will have to make another trip to the region.
