Some say life is 10% what happens, 90% how you react to others you bump in to. Not everyone is going to be like you, agree with you. Love them any way.

Peggy, A very inspiring list; I'm inspired to live them too - printing to share with my small group today and honored to say I received from you. Thanks

Peggy, that's an awesome list - a couple are new ones to me, even though - like you - I seek out positive messages wherever I can find them. Here's another I'd add, from Dale Carnegie: "Be the most positive and enthusiastic person you know." Knowing you makes this Carnegie challenge hard!

Great list, Peg...ever thought of working on a list site? It is the one choice we really have in life - our attitude. We can't much control what goes on in our lives, but we can completely control how we react to it! Getting up every day and thanking God for the blessings in your life is a GREAT way to begin!
