The Optimist - Promise Yourself Creed

Are you an optimist? And do you know the ‘promise yourself creed’?

I’ve always been a huge optimist! I mean, why in the world would anyone want to be negative when they have the option of being positive? Doesn’t make sense to me … how bout you? I was doing my stats and checking blog analytics a couple days ago and I saw that 2 people had found my blog because they were looking for this Optimist Promise Yourself Creed. So I knew we had a very early morning appointment this morning and I decided I’d just post it this morning to help me not be so rushed writing something new. I tend to get so sidetracked and go so long when I’m just writing off the top of my head … and TOO it would also be a little something good for all of us to read when we have time today.

Too Far On The Sunny Side?

I’ve told you before that Kim has said so many times that I exhaust her because I run around through the day with sunshine coming out of my behind. But I’ve just always been this way. It wasn’t anything I got from anyone else in the family. I’m the only goof ball in the bunch. AND, it isn’t that I don’t worry. OH my GOODNESS I AM SUCH A WORRY WART. And I shed tears when things happen to people close to me or sometimes even just over a story on the news. And when I broke my leg … my goodness I shed a LOT of tears just for my DOG gone self. I threw some of the biggest pity parties during my 13 weeks down – that Round Knob Canyon has ever seen. But all in all … I look for the silver lining in the clouds and I pray for miracles even when things look darkest and I expect for them to happen….

I’m going to leave you with this creed this morning. Read it! Ponder it! Share it with your own friends! And let’s do all we can do to make each and every day one of the best days we’ve ever had. Let’s not worry about making this our best ‘year’. Let’s just take one day at a time and make each one of those the very best we can make them. For ourselves and for those closest to us that we love.

Peace and love from the canyon. I love you all gobs and gobs and thanks so much – for stopping by.

The Optimist – Promise Yourself Creed

Promise Yourself

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.

To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble
