Powerful Positive Thinking.

I didn't coin the initialism.  (side note,albeit early, the difference between an initialism and an acronym is that an initialism can't be sounded out, as an acronym can i.e. Rainbow P.U.S.H colalition, this could be a Jeopardy question one day!).  A friend however  did and I regret to admit that I didn't practice this much today although my urge was totally there and I tried to remember my little mantra when I got frustrated today, I succumbed to the disparity. Grrr. Mad at myself!

Remembering is the easy part, it's putting it into action that can be challenging during certain moments.  Case in point, I do not like when the general public calls me and pigeon holes me into being the government as if the government was a living, breathing body sitting behind a desk.  Although I am indeed employed by the government, I do have my own DNA. I breathe.  I have debt sure, but not a trillion dollars worth!   It's "you people" do this and "you people" have a new 3 million dollar  city hall, and "you people" just want us to go without, etc.  Listen, if  I had my choice, I'd feed everybody, deliver water and electric for free, and give away free turkeys for Thanksgiving AND Christmas.. But alas, I am but one person who bears the brunt of other people's suitcases full of drama. I lack the power what can I say?

So often, people forget that you really do get more bees with honey than you do with vinegar. True enough, you must add a sprig of persistence but I assure you, you are nice to me than I in turn will be nice to you.  Whether you are an engineer (who really can't see anything in the abstract sense, grrrr ), a contractor, a person on welfare with one limb and 10 kids, I will treat you all the same provided you reciprocate. It 's not rocket science. (sorry Mr. Engineer).

Sooooo, having relieved myself of my own suitcase load of lovely,  I assume my powerful, positive thinking right now this moment!

Truth be told: Sometimes trying is not succeeding, that doesn't mean one should give up. Regroup, restructure and repeat.
