+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
My life is full of happenings,
Some are good and some are bad.
I take the bitter with the sweet,
In happy times and sad.

How I view these happenings,
Affects the way I feel,
When I think in negatives,
The dark times seem so real.

But when I'm thinking happy thoughts,
I can face what comes my way,
Nothing ever gets me down,
As I sail through my day!

Very upbeat and positive Linda!
Enjoyed so much!
Love your way of looking at life...
or is that...lives?  
Hugs YOU!

Well, Linda Lou, I know that I need to heed
to this, but it sure has been hard lately.
Of course, if I could be with my Honey all
the time, I believe things would be glorious.

This is so true.  I try to stay positive, but can't always.  Life is so much better that way.

This brought the biggest smile to my face!! I loved it! The only critique I would have would be I think it sounds better to say "through out my day" in the end. But that is just a matter of word choice, it sounds just fine the way it is, thats just my two cents. Very lovely write.
