Speak not to me in the negative
I cannot bear the shame
Speak not to me of things I've lost
But of those I've yet to gain

Speak to me in the positive
For there my shame shall end
As light into this tunnel breaks
We all shall live again

Speak not to me in the negative
For those words do not take
But speak to me in the positive
And friends we'll surely make

For negative breeds negative
Like magnets they repel
But positive breeds positive
And this my fears will quell

Speak not to me in the negative
And from this we all shall see
That positives force negatives
To change and grow and see

Thank you Noah and Linda! I try very hard to always look on the positive side of things, and it is a habit that has stood me well. I only wish that more people would think before they speak and try to put a positive spin on their words. The world would be a much better place if this were so. Thanks again for your beautiful comments. You are friends of my heart.
