What happens

Posted in my everyday life by Maria on 2009/12/22

Try to say nothing negative about anybody for three days, for forty-five days, for three months. See what happens to your life.
- Today, from @yokoono

This resonates. Holidays are here, I’m heading home, there will inevitably be gossip around the kitchen table: words said that aren’t so nice or just plain frivolous. This season, I’m not going to partake.

Will you join me?

    I’m in, for sure. In fact, it was something I learned long ago: my world is better when I acknowledge the goodness in it, and not the bad.

    I made a conscious decision, years ago, to always see the best in people — to refuse to speak ill of them because I refuse to _see_ those negative traits. I may not always be successful, but I have tried, I continue to try, every day.

    Thanks for the reminder. I’ll be joining you in this effort, not only this holiday season, but every day of my life.
