&lt;p&gt;Being positive is just you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You don’t have to strive to be you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are you already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s the same for everyone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So what? You say?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What if you want to be a better you?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Knock yourself out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But be careful.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You might have to strive to be better.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That will cost you energy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not someone else’s energy, it will cost you your energy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And when you fail to be something other than what you are,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well, that can be painful.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This doesn’t mean we can’t change our habits.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I changed my diet several years ago and my new diet has become a habit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But that has nothing to do with my vastness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That has nothing to do with my understanding of my vastness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And being positive or not doesn’t matter in that regard one iota.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Knowing what you are?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That matters.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think of yourself in terms like “I’m positive,” or&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“I’m moody,” then you’re not thinking straight.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can have any thought you want,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But you can’t think about your vastness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are already vastness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s the same for everyone.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://winterstormpress.com/post/10112730148</link><guid>http://winterstormpress.com/post/10112730148</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Sep 2011 21:41:00 -0500</pubDate><category>philosophy</category></item></channel></rss>
