One of my New Year's resolutions is to try to be less negative. It's tough though because my mother is one of the most negative people in the world and that is how I was brought up. As one of my brothers always says, if you are feeling really good about something, just give her a call and she will bring you down.
As I said, that's how I was brought up and I've been trying to fight all the negativity that comes into my head. Once you open your eyes to it, it's hard to believe how much negativity there is in this world. I am noticing my mother's negativity even more and called her out on it yesterday. That went well. I am getting sick and tired of the people that only post on Facebook to rant. Sure, I post an occasional rant, but I do try to post fun stuff too.
I think the internet makes it worse as you can anonymously be nasty and post negative comments. Have any of you ever read the comments on a newspaper article online, for example?
So I really don't know where I am going with all this. :lol3: It's another odd, rambling post from me. :lol3:
I guess basically are you a negative or a positive person and if negative, are you trying to change that?
