I am trying to stay positive with all the gloom and doom going on in the world. It is so easy to get caught up in every problem that surrounds you.

When do you draw the line?

Negativity is like a thief in the night, you wake up and realize your happiness and quality of life is near zero! So, this morning I woke up thinking, I'm going to make the most of the day and just smile.

I did an alright job... but boy does life throw interesting situations at you. I loved my job at one point. I can pretty much pin-point when I lost the caring part. I am sure this feeling is mutual in with some jobs in this market, as leader have to make tough decisions. Even though I am now on my final count down to be out of there, it is hard not to feel the thickness in the air.

My goal the next few weeks and months is to find that perfect balance in caring for others and other things, with out damaging myself with the negativity. I want to weed out the things in life that do not lift me up or make me appreciate life. I am sure it will not be easy...

I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a
desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.
