Positive Thinking In Spring
An optimist is the human personification of spring.
-Susan J. Bissonette
It is March 29th… spring has sprung… and yet as I type this I look out my office window to see snow on the ground. Here in the Pacific Northwest we have been hit with a snow storm.
No one expects it to last. Hope springs eternal and the expectation held by all is for warmer weather to come.
If everything were the same outside, but the calendar showed the month as December, the human perception of the day would be considerably different. Instead of expecting warm weather to come one would wonder how much more snow we should expect. The day would be the same… only the human perception of it would be different.
That example illustrates the vast difference between being an optimist and pessimist. The outside would is viewed very differently based on how you interpret the data.
It is the difference between seeing an event as beautiful or ugly….. Half empty or half full…… Young and vibrant or old and tired. ….. It is the difference between enjoying your life or dreading your life.
Nothing is more important than developing a positive attitude, because it affects every aspect of your life.
How about a short film of ME, MY LIFE AS IT IS, WAS AND WILL BE…IF! Then the dramatic change, the shift in me that gears towards becoming a better ME, healthier, wealthier, nicer to myself ME, a kind of Educating Rita transformation and the concept of The Lawn Mower Man, without the destruct ional ending? I have great depth of material based on my life that will relate to the multitudes, the 60s, poverty, struggle, abuse in all categories, searching for answers in various denominations getting baptised here and there in search for a better life a better me, marriage, abuse, guilt, shame, parenting, death and suicide all transformed into a learning curb and being able to manifest from the cocoon of my past into a colourful and beautiful being that we all deserve to acknowledge, despair replaced with hope, ugliness with beauty in and out, again like the ending of ‘what ever happen to baby Jane’ Bettie Davis and Joan Crawford’ that moment on the beach when she was lifted of all past emotions and guilt, how her face changed form harsh stern hate to glow with love and freedom…. what do you think? I am still poor and would, like you, have a vast collection of treasured books but alas, circumstances disallow for now. So this shot in the dark, is my way of submitting energy to connect with the right resources to see this through. I have had film training and I do know that as well as destruction, I also have a gold mine in my mind, I need someone to believe in me and extract it to manifest it in a film that will have the qualities of the ones mentioned and more that will bring it all to a climax where I will be free and not have to disconnect physically to do so. Well at least write back to me, I would be interested in your reaction, we can laugh together.
