I AM NOT THIS KIND, BUT I AM WORKING ON IT.........THE BIBLE SPEAKS ON THIS, BUT I AM A WORK IN PROGRESS SO...........
A negative attitude can be contagious. Fortunately, so can a positive attitude.
One of the biggest challenges of staying positively focused can come from the negative people who cross your path. Yet instead of letting them get you down, you can choose to lift them up.
When someone is rude to you, the most powerful response is not to reply with your own rudeness. After all, what would that accomplish?
Your best choice in such a situation is to respond with courtesy, kindness, consideration and understanding. Though it may seem strange and unnatural at first, it can have a profoundly positive impact on the situation.
Most people, when given the chance, will be glad for you to rescue them from their own negative momentum. When you come across someone who is clearly in a bad mood, you have the opportunity to be the best part of that person's day.
Seize that opportunity and make the most of it. When you give a little kindness, it can make a big, big difference.
-- Ralph Marston
P.S. - A few people that I could of been nicer to in life..........
1.) Shasha Courtney (Even though she deserved it from being full of ish, no one deserves to be called out like I do when I feel like I am right.)
2.) Chad Carter (I didnt mean to f--- him over but in 1993 it happened, I regret it, and thankfully my parents saved my a--!)
3.) Darrylynn Hutson (I truly regret this one! Whereever she is, I need to cut her a check!)
4.) Toni (She really deserved it, but like I said before, no one needs to be around me when I am both angry and hurt, which in and of itself, is rare!)
5.) A couple of dudes at Morehouse. (They know who they are. They looked out and I didnt reciprocate. That whole transition from a boy to a man was rough on me and I screwed over a lot of people in the process including myself!)

This is definitely true. Most of the time people are drawn to happiness and kindness. Ever see a drop dead gorgeous women with a man that's "unsightly" and he's not rich ;-)? hmmmmm
