I came across this article, and I thought I should share it with everyone. Its a blog and Kristen Armstrong is an exceptionally thoughtful writer and I really enjoy reading her posts.
Do you think what she did can be a way to induce positive emotion?
Read it and comment to tell me what you think!

I think she makes a good point about attitude and your state of mind when faced with adversity, and it makes all the difference.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely that sometimes you just have to look at the bright side when you are having a bad day.
ReplyDeleteDisha,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you put this up to read. I loved her writing, so creative and thoughtful! I also love what she did. I always try to go out of my way to do little things for others, but sometimes in all the shuffle I can forget. This was a great reminder. I also thought that what she did definitely was a way to induce positive emotion. It was so inspiring to read how she had changed her day around by doing things for others. Thanks Again, I think I will follow her posts from now on!

I liked her decision. There are sometimes when the funk she is talking about hits and if you don't decide to handle it like this you do spend a signiificant amount of time focusing on the 'funk' itself and this demands a lot of energy. I will have to give this a try.
