Yesterday I needed to be around positivity. I needed to uplift my soul. I thought, ‘I will be the one to uplift others.’ So as I walked around Target, every person that passed by I thought of something nice. I complimented a girl with beautiful lavender hair in braids. I thought maybe I should say it out loud to each one but some were a simple “I love you.” or a silent prayer for them to have a great day. Can you imagine if I said those out loud? “Hey, you! I love you! I really do!”, “Heavenly Father! Please help that this lady walking by me, yes, YOU! I pray you’ll have a great day today! In the name of Jesus, amen!” Yeah, nope.

Then I went to Sprouts. The blueberries were on sale again. 4 for $5 this time! So of course I thought of my dad. “Buy it & give it to someone else.” an immediate thought came. No! Not again! It was so awkward last time & I cried! But I’ve learned that when I suppress a thought to do a kind deed, I always regret it. So I grabbed them w/ plans to give to our next door grandma. Then I passed by a mom w/ 2 young kids & thought, ‘What a good mom she is.’ Then a thought came that I should tell her! I thought no! Stop it! I’m an introvert & I hate doing these things! I passed by her for the 3rd time when I finally said, “Excuse me? I just wanted to tell you that I think you’re a great mom. I love the way you talk to your kids. I can tell you’re a wonderful mom.” I was so uncomfortable & bashful but she looked at me w/ the most sincere eyes & kept telling me thank you. That she appreciates me telling her so much, more than I’ll ever know. “What did she say to you mom?” Her toddler boy asked as he came back to her. “That lady just said something really nice to me.” I heard her say as I was several feet away from her. Then tears rolled down my eyes. I felt my dad. & my soul was lifted. All the negative energy in my heart was gone. “Dad? I’m getting outta here so you can’t tell me to say anything anymore to a complete stranger!” I thought. Then a thought came that I needed to share this. So here I am.

You can’t fight for positivity with negativity. Positivity. Love. Light. Is always the answer. I need to remember this more than anyone.
