Positive at the end

I have been sick and want to get better.

Below are some things I thought about, but everytime I got too into it I would have a hideous coughing fit and be like...let's leave that topic alone right now because it's not helping...maybe later.

Well maybe...

Later has arrived!

ever met, that could be an interesting conversation.

Sometimes there's an unfortunate phenomenon in which "telling people to have a more positive attitude" actually just sounds like "another excuse to shut down others"

His attitude  reminded me of it, especially when he talks about a near collision in a parking lot with a mother driving a car with four kids in the back. Gosh, I feel so sorry that mother lacks the positive attitude he describes from his cozy vehicle of privilege. Could he be any more inspiring?

For some reason, this guy won a Nobel Prize last year even though his attitude wasn't as positive.

What if people are biased or discriminate or go along with others who do so, but happen to have "a positive attitude" towards the right people, who happen to be the ones with the MONEY. Is that right?

Doesn't Ivanka work hard and  have a positive attitude, and she's so supportive of her father in spite of  all the negative things people say...

Hmmm...Cool "Nasty Woman" Elizabeth Warren clip.

Probably the oil company (and others) just wishes these people had a more positive attitude.

ACTUALLY....This really sounds like a positive attitude!

At any rate the tone of it made me feel more positive about the world!
