My Favorite Day
I am going to try to have a more positive outlook on today. So what day is it today? My favorite day. It doesn’t matter what day it is. Yes, I am lying in a way. Some days are better than others. But this just simply means that we should find something good in each day. Allowing negativity to consume me at times defeats who I really am. I am not that person. Circumstances have sometimes caused me to feel quite negative. Then again, that is what death, loss and physical pain does to someone. But I have to work hard to overcome this.
Can I do it? So how do I do it? Yes, I can do it. Daily? No, probably not. It’s a struggle. It’s against my nature. How do I do it? I look for positive things. I pray. I pray A LOT! In the last couple of years I have gotten to the point where my prayers are no longer just a monologue. They’re conversations. A conversation is back and forth communication. I don’t feel like I am talking to the air anymore. I finally quit thinking it was me talking to myself. I feel real guidance. And it has been absolutely real. It helped me out of situations that were scary and even dangerous.
So on those days when it’s not my favorite, I remind myself of the good things. I keep positive things in my mind. I try to remember good things in my life rather than bad. All things happen for a reason.
So last night was a crazy night at work. But what day is today? My favorite day.
Happy Day to you !! This is good for me to remember as well !! Thanks for sharing.

Today is my favorite day, too. Thirty-five months ago, today, I relapsed. Binged. That was my last binge. Keep working with that Higher Power of yours. Your strength comes from your faith, and I think that’s a beautiful thing to have appreciation. A good day to be alive.
Congratulations on your success, Jess! How amazing for you! Last night was a HORRIBLE night at work, but know what? Today is my favorite day. I am home and away from it and home with my bratty cats.
