Charma. Good things happen to good people. Positive thoughts and positive actions equals positive results. Give someone a compliment. You feel happy and they feel good. Serve someone. You feel good and they feel better. My husband says we should always believe that people are doing the best they can with the information and understanding they have. We should always believe people took the actions they did with the best intentions.

If you say something bad about someone say ten nice things about that person. It helps you look at the situation more positively, feel compassion for that person and be a more positive person. I use to work in a group home for delinquent and struggling youth. They earned points for the good and bad things they did. The rule was that for ever four sets of bad points they earned they should have ten positive sets of points so that they can feel good about life, even if they are little things.

I’ll never forget when a high school teacher had all thirty students sit in a circle where every single one of us said something nice about everyone else. This took the full class period for almost a week. Not all of us knew each other that well, but we could still offer a “I like your shoes” “I like your smile” “You run fast”.

Telling twenty nine other people good things about them, makes you feel happy. Having twenty nine people tell you something nice about you makes you feel good inside Listening to twenty nine people tell each other nice things, creates a unity in the class.

We’ve used this at my husband’s family reunion and video taped it. This became more personal, years of nice things to say. “You were always there for me” “You always are happy for me and non-judgmental”.

Some groups write nice things about each other and then you can take it home. Saying something nice never hurts. So say something nice to someone today. Say something nice about someone today. Feel Positive. Feel Happy. Feel Good.
