Even from a dark night, songs of beauty can be born. -- Maryanne Radmacher-Hershey

As part of my personal goals for 2013, I want to be more positive.  I naturally tend be cynical in most situations.  I like to think of it being realistic.  But after last fall's bout of depression, I need to try and be more positive.  Thinking dark thoughts doesn't help me at all.  If I was doing the yearly word challenge that I see on tons of blogs, I would choose "positive" for 2013.  This above quote reminds me to look for the positive in every situation.
