...Positive People (#2)

NUMBER TWO: People who can find the silver lining in anything.

You know when you've had a bad day and there's just one person you'd love to talk to because you know they'll cheer you up? Or, maybe you know someone who can turn a bad situation 180 degrees and make everything seem good? Those types of people are the kind of people who really get life, I think.

Bad things happen to everyone, but not everyone is capable of finding something good in something bad. It's important to be able to find something positive, because in a world that's abused by negativity, if you aren't positive you're going to get sucked under like so many people!

Positiveness (that's a word, right?) is most important to me because if I didn't have the ability to remain positive, first of all I'd be boring. Second of all I'd get super annoying. Thirdly, well...no one likes a negative person anyway. You've got to smile and take it. Whatever that it might be. Take it and turn it into something AWESOME. Give it two thumbs up instead of one thumb up!

If you have a hard time trying to find something positive in a situation, like if you're upset or sad...take three minute to yourself and be negative. Be as negative as you can possibly be. Cry about it, little baby. But only cry about it for three minutes. You're a big kid now, you can handle what life is throwing at you. You CAN! Yes, you. You can do it. It might be hard, but you can do it. I know you can!

Just be like good old Jim.
