Think POSITIVE. Be POSITIVE.

In a world of full of hatred, corruption, anger, resent, vengeance and other negativities, it is quite hard to be the source of light. Nevertheless, it is possible.

From the book of Dr. Barbara Fredrickson entitled, Positivity, she enumerated ten positive emotions. As I came upon the ten positive emotions, I suddenly reflected and felt that if we try to be a light in the darkness, then we'll all have a better place to live in.
