Trying to be positive
21 Sep '18 01:422 editsMy wife has told me for years that I am a negative person. I am making a concerted effort to be positive. The only things I now post are positive. I figure it's a start.

So some positive things:
You are married
You still talk to each other

Splendid sir!
I use to have a note on my computer saying 'be the most positive person in every room you enter.'
Quite the challenge.
21 Sep '18 08:10Originally posted by @torunnalas negativity is rooted in my being , when I awake around lunch time( I rise late because morning tv is far to cheerful) I pour my self a double scotch and put some sad reality program on benefits street, rich house poor house, benefits Britain or the sheriffs are coming, I find it comforting that others are in a far worse state than me.then I lounge around on the sofa watching really bad made for tv US or Canadian films , I like to round the day off by finishing the litre bottle of scotch whilst watching britains got talent ( which it obviously has not) then its back to bed and my groundhog day looms back into view.
Very good! I will try that.
