And I mean every single word........


Poem Artwork

 

Wondrous things are possible,
Of this I have no doubt.
Just as long as I believe
Good luck will come about!
My attitude will be positive,
No room for negative chi,
I’ll wear a smile upon my face,
That everyone will see!
Life will hand me lemons,
From time to time I know,
But I’ll turn them into lemonade
And sweeten it as I go!
I only have one life to live,
A gift to relish each day,
And I’ll make every second count
Whether I’m at work or play.
Now I've been called an optimistic,
But that’s not such a curse,
Being known as negative Nell,
To me would be much worse!

Right on! It really is fun to try and get an old crabby to smile. Patrick

Life is so much better on the bright side, and so much better being around positive people.
Cheery wishes from David, with my glass half full!

I always feel that I may as well be optimistic about the things that really matter to me because, even if they do not turn out as I wished, at least I felt good for as long as it lasted. Sure beats always feeling bad.
Your friend, Mark

I like this but did you know there is actually an international organization called the Optimist Club, I am not a member but had the privalege of attending several of their meetings as a spokesperson for a local charity and yes they actually do have an OPtimist Creed that they recite standing up at every meeting. I like yours better though.

Outward smiles throughout the day, at work or play is always appreciated by those who get to see it. Nice work.
