Self Assurance

I need some. I don't feel very settled right now. I have some things to look forward to, but I am the type to let my feelings consume me. I am not usually the type to be able "move on." I am more the type to stew and fester. I guess I have inherited that. I heard a program on the radio the other day about genes and DNA. According to the experts on this show, our genes and DNA determine not only what we look like, but how we think. So, does that mean that one tick to the left or right that I would have a totally different outlook on life?

For the most part, I am a positive and optimistic person. I don't like to be around people who are negative, either intentionally or when people can only tell you what's wrong. We all have our own terrible experiences, but we all have to remember that for every terrible thing that happens to us there are people who have it far worse than we do. I try to remember that. I am truly blessed. I have a wonderful family. I have a wonderful husband. I have wonderful friends. I have great people surrounding me, 360 degrees.
