No dear not everyone was being negative. Read back through the post
im sure you can find the most negative one if you look closely enough.

I try and look for the positives in every situation and in everyone I know. Even my enemies.
Some people do make it difficult. In the past year my life has really changed
for the better. My attitude and energy level is both better and higher than its been in many
many years. Its much heathier and life is much more pleasant and rewarding
if you learn to sidestep the self-rightous jealous angry know it alls of this world and
continue to explore and experience life with your goals always in sight and
your attitude good. Then its my belief life will reward your efforts.
Sorry about the rant. Take the advice or leave it.
Life will teach you wisdom but an open mind IS required.

Fav quote from one of my coaches, " Fencing is all about distance and timing. Perfect these two and you'll fence perfectly." Unfortunately he never said how hard it was to get these 2 things exactly right all the time.
