Hey. We are only 10 inches below normal in rainfall, but today we are getting rain. The best part is that the leaves are changing color and the grass is going dormant…won’t need to mow it right away.

My wife and I got our monthly disability checks so, wow, pay the bills, pay the rent, buy some groceries…just like millions of other Americans. You know it is amazing how many of us are actually two paychecks away from being homeless.

The stock market is adding to the gloom of the weather here as we try to get UP for Thanksgiving and the Christmas shopping season. I watched Sylvia Browne on Montel yesterday. She said we were going to get slammed by the weather for the rest of the year.

Let’s see what other things can pound on my Positive outlook: poverty, weather, economic blues, Iraq & Afganastan, our sons and daughters in the line of danger, political campaigns, worsening problems with health care and social security, China trying to kill our children and getting paid to do it…thats enought of that.

I control my attitude and outlook and refuse to give into those other things. Sure they are bad, sure they need to be addressed, but they are not going to rule my life or run my attitude.

Well, this was quite an emotional burst, but I feel better. You might also if you don’t take on these burdens. Let them roll off your back and make changes in your life, as I am trying to do, in order to be in a position to help just one other person each day. Over the next ten years, that amounts to over 3,000 people, What if everyone did that???
