I realized that I should read this every so often as a reminder. Some of these things are things that I need to give up in my life, which I know will make me a happier person.

Fifty things :)
I need to get to bed. I've been running on little sleep and working a lot this week. But here's 50 positive/optimistic thoughts :)
1. I've been limping around due to a stress fracture on my foot, but at least it will heal at some point and I still have both of my feet and legs.

6. I got a paycheck today.

11. Roommate Skype sesh with Meg and her sister
12. I have a roof over my head.

33. Wite-Out
34. Pink Pearl erasers
35. People that quit smoking

48. My sister just gave me one of her swimsuits to keep.
49. Being able to accept the hardships that are occurring in my life
50. Feeling loved and giving love
1. I've been limping around due to a stress fracture on my foot, but at least it will heal at some point and I still have both of my feet and legs.

100 positive things.
So my lovely friend, Drew, recently started making a list of 100 positive/optimistic thoughts each day in his blog. He suggested I do it too, and I ended up sending him my lists through Facebook messages. Instead of just sharing it with him, I thought I'd also make my own blog for my lists and to share other positive things :)
Since I try not to repeat anything from previous lists, they make me dig deep for really simple things, things that I tend to overlook and take for granted. Sometimes the lists include material things or just positive thoughts, but either way, they have really increased my positivity. I go throughout my day finding so many positive things that I want to put on my list and get excited to sit down and spill out 100 things at the end of the day.
