I am now on my third set of positive words -going in alphabetical order.  I get just as much out of them now as I if did when I began this series.

Before I began depression treatment the words I used out loud, and in my mind were peppered with negativity.  At that time, I did not realize the power that words could have on a person’s mood, attitude, and outlook on life.  Depression treatment has taught me to be mindful of the words I use.  Creating this list of positive words for each letter of the alphabet has been a terrific way for me to build up a positive word bank.  My life is very different now.  I see a future laid out before me that will be filled with much joy.  I know there will be sorrows, however, I think the joy will outweigh those.

Feel free to use anything you see on this list on your blog – or even create your own list of positive words.

Remarkable -This  word makes me feel positively positive because when I look at my mother I can see how remarkable she is.  It has been very difficult for her since my dad died, but she has handled everything with grace, and done a wonderful job.  She has had to make an awful lot of phone calls that started with ” My husband recently died… “, and as hard as it has been she’s done it.  Although there have been times when she’s been very, very sad, she has shown  a great deal of strength during this difficult time.  She is a remarkable woman and I’m blessed that she is my mother.
