The power of positive words is life giving. They build me up, and provide me with encouragement. They have been known to empower me, giving me the confidence I need to face something difficult. Beginning with the letter A and ending it with Z….I am going to make a list of one word for each letter (A-Z) and include why this word makes me feel positively happy.

Joy – This word makes me positively happy, because represents a state if contentment. It is not a fleeting emotion – like happiness – that goes away when you have a bad day, it is something that stays with you no matter what your circumstances are.

I would love to see what you come up with for J!

My friend Margaret of The World As I See It, is also creating a list of positive words. You should check it out.
