I know I&amp;#39;ve been very spotty with my posts and hope to do a little better.  I think if we had more Pollyannas the world would be a much better place. Keep smiling and thinking good thoughts. Maybe someday it will catch on!!

My situation and history haven&amp;#39;t been any easier or richer than anyone else&amp;#39;s. As you mentioned in your post, to invest that simple gratefulness and upturned joy into the world on a regular basis is to see it return ten-fold.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best to you on your job search and dreams!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6223879792920967273/7055196064846255179/comments/default/1868330517675704215'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6223879792920967273/7055196064846255179/comments/default/1868330517675704215'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.travelinwithcharlie.com/2009/06/finding-positive-focus.html?showComment=1245396736722#c1868330517675704215' title=''/><author><name>Pennie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.travelinwithcharlie.com/2009/06/finding-positive-focus.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6223879792920967273.post-7055196064846255179' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6223879792920967273/posts/default/7055196064846255179' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-861254693'/></entry></feed>
