I was a happy kid... and continue to be

I see that for the most part I remain optimistic about a lot of things... I was a happy kid, or so I'm told, and I think that through thick and thin that has translated into who I am today. I think I do complain quite a bit, and can be negative at times for sure, but in the back of my mind I think I always have a positive demeanor. I started thinking about this some this week when a group member mentioned something about our America's Army team, and how it felt that really anyone could be doing this and the only thing we had on anyone else was some conversation with the AA guys. This really kind of irked me in a way, this sort of negativity just kind of bugs me. When people are negative about certain things I seem to have a reaction of "well either do something about it, or you don't have to be here." This typically refers to negative comments about Champlain, I don't care what anyone says the school isn't out to "screw us over." We choose to be here too, just as we chose to be on this team. Getting back to my point though, I find that I certainly do have off days where I'm not in the best of moods, but I really do think I'm sort of a happy person. Which is a different way of viewing myself as of late. I think for a long while at the end of my teen years I was fairly negative about a lot of things, and well things sort of feel "right" right now. Sort of like I've gone full circle in some ways.

This may sound weird but I do think this may relate to a post I made earlier about "The Secret," I've typically been positive about a lot of things and whenever I don't have much of a doubt... good things seem to happen. Does this positive attitude steer my life in the right direction? Does it bring good things my way? I don't really know for sure, but I do think it's a healthy way of living =)




I was feeling pretty noble in NY this past year, I just find this to be a funny picture because of the business guy behind me haha... Oh ps... my hair is much shorter now... nothing major to include in my blog but just thought I'd share haha
