Perspective in tough times.

Hi Bo - Reflecting back on American Band Stand I give this song a 90.  It has great rhythm and is easy to dance to.  I'm a "boomer" and generally like music from the 60s but I also love the music from this era as well. 

I agree; we do need to take stock in what we have to be grateful and try not to let the negative control our lives.  Positive thinking will move us forward.  We need to keep looking forward.

Bo,

Amen Brother Amen.

When I woke up this morning and saw the sun shining, I thanked the Lord for one more day. Now it is up to me to make the best of it.  You do the the same.

Have a great day

Make This YOUR Best Year Ever

Sometimes we just need to sit back and thank God for all the good things he has given us in our lives.

There are plenty of things for which to be thankful... sometimes I have t stop and think about them, but they really are there.

Bo - you should post this in Thankful Thursdays. I have been attempting to practice this for a time now, my perspective and attitude have become more positive. I was just reading something about how to start this every day. When you get out of bed, as you place one foot on the floor say "thank" as you place the other one say "you". It starts the day with an attitude of gratitude.

Bo,

My dad loved this kind of stuff.....

Thanks for sharing,

it is often hard to stay away from the negative water cooler talk and negative people and media, but need to keep perspective

Thanks for this.....it seems everything I heard yesterday was gloomy and depressing!
