In reply to Kelly Palmer. I am just like that Kelly!! I can listen to people’s problems easily, but some people are constantly very negative, even about smaller things. I have always been the type of person that smiles and jokes and carry’s on with everyone. I like a fun, happy environment. I learned real quick to be prayerful and keep my distance. It’s very sad that there are people out there that are hurting down deep inside so much that it comes out in the things they say. It just goes to show us, that we don’t know what everyone has gone through or their entire story. Prayer is always the best way to deal with things like that. Hope Troy feels better soon! I’m watching church on TV today also

Good post, Beverly. I know exactly what you’re talking about and, honestly, being negative all the time just drains the pure life out of you. I resolved years ago to try to see good in everything and as you do that it gets easier to do! It kinda trains your mind to go to the good instead of the doom and gloom. And I truly believe it makes you a healthier person too. Let’s go for that domino effect! Happy Sunday!

Good Sunday morning! I am a very empathic person and easily take on the moods and feelings of those around me. I have to be careful because this can be very draining to me mentally and physically. I have found the best way to handle people that are expressing a lot of negativity or hostility is for me to pray for them from a bit of a distance. I have a tendency toward wanting to make things better for people and it gives me so much pleasure to put a smile on someones face. Ever since I was young my friends would always come to me with their problems. I sometimes think that I would have made a good counselor if I didn’t take on these feelings myself so easily. Troy is finally making some progress but still is dealing with a migraine so we won’t be attending church this morning. Thankfully our church will post a video on Facebook so I can still watch it and not feel as though I totally missed out 🙂 I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I am taking advantage of being home a lot and doing my favorite things, cleaning and organizing!!
