Focusing on the Good

Since Roland requested a new post. . .

Do you ever find it difficult to focus on and give thanks for all that is good around you?

Philippians 4:8

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things

I confess that lately this has been my goal. But sometimes it can be more difficult than others.

I suck at it.
But I still try.
And how come all those people out there who are ranting about others needing to get things straight, seem to have forgotten that verse in the Bibles?

The number one factor in one's happiness is choosing to be happy. That pretty well sums it up. I really try and focus on that every day. I am happy because I want to be.

A good philosophy Kinggame.
But sometimes it isn't going to happen right away.
I mean if I lost my whole family in a fire or something, I'm not going to Disney world right away.
But its good to try to remember the good things, to be sure.
