Guilty- And I haven’t even been on trial

Over the Memorial break I have been tried and convicted of (gasp) being negative.  Which is crazy, because over the past year and some months I have been trying to be positive.  And I have a minor conviction of being a hater. :( 

• My mother asked me if one of my friends were going to marry her long time boyfriend, I was like I hope not.  I went on the explain how I do not think they are not at the place for marriage and how they need to grow more.  My mother was like they can grow together.  I told her he was a nice guy, but I still hold to believe that they should not be getting married.  Honestly I think my friend needs to find herself and live.  I do not think she can do that type of growing in a relationship as deep as marriage.  My mother branded me a HATER.  As if.
• While in Savannah my Aunt said she had not seen me smile since I broke up with my ex.  (just under 2 years)  She said that is the only time I seemed to have a contagious smile and had been happy. 
• One of my dear friends suggested we go out and get drunk, because he wanted to see me smile.  I don’t genuinely smile?

So I am starting to being Positiveback.  Yes.

Here are some things that I am doing to boost my positivity rate.

• Practive positive thinking
• Eject negative self talk
• positive visualization

If all else fails professional counseling.
