If you use gratitude everyday your life will change in ways
you can’t imagine. It will dissolve negativity. Gratitude is the bridge to love
and nothing negative can exist in love. So when bad thoughts occupy space in
your head you have the power to change this by simply being grateful for things
in your life. You can’t be sad, or depressed or angry when you're grateful. When you find yourself taking that slide to
cranky, and irritated, stop and look around you for things to be grateful for,
look for things that make you happy. Once you start looking, keep looking for
another and another and what happens is those bad feelings that have crept up
on you will suddenly dissolve. You can change anything negative into positive
by doing this.
When problems crop up during your day, learn to not give them
any energy, look for things to be grateful for and what will happen is those
problems will disappear. And the reason they disappear is because you are not
giving them energy.
I remind myself often, and my kids that everything negative and problematic in our
life, we’ve created by our thoughts. And
we don’t even realize sometimes we’ve done it. Because what we think and what
we believe are what we create in our reality. And it’s not about the other
person, you may believe that challenging person you’ve met or who is the source of all your misery is the
problem. Well, they’re not. It’s you, the energy you give to the situation. If
you focus your energy on the problem you
will make the problem bigger. Simply turn away from it, give it no energy and start
looking for things to be grateful for.
One of the things I’ve learned and I stress to my kids, don’t
talk about problems, or gossip about people because this isn’t being grateful
or loving and will come back to you in ways you can’t imagine, and nothing
good. It comes down to, you get back what you put out. I certainly don’t want people
gossiping, making up stories about me, or dissecting my skills as an author, as
a parent, as a community member. So I make a point if someone is gossiping
about another person, I change the subject and end whatever is being said about
that person with something positive.
If you are angry with someone, a spouse, loved one, friend
or someone you met start looking for something to appreciate about that person
and don’t focus on the problems. Feeling the need to vent about a person to a
friend isn’t helping the situation for you. And all you're doing is giving
energy to a bad situation and making it worse. When you start to recognize what
you’re doing with these patterns you can change your entire life for you, for
the better.

Imagine that the man who's been the source of all your misery shows up on your doorstep. Imagine this man wants your forgiveness for every bad thing he's done to you and your friends. Would you believe him?
Marcie, Maggie, and Diane all have one thing in common: Dan McKenzie, an unscrupulous man who uses women. His motto in life is "Lie, cheat, and steal." He faked his death and tried to frame Maggie's husband with his murder. He blackmailed Marcie to run drugs for him. And Diane, a cop, had to stand by, knowing he was responsible for planting drugs in her partner's locker. He's always walked away scot free. Until now.
As the friends move on with their lives, Maggie and her husband plan for another child after surviving the loss of their daughter. Zac asks Diane to marry him, though he hides a secret from his past that could destroy the future they have planned. And though Marcie and Sam are expecting their second child, their relationship teeters on the brink of disaster.
What these three friends don't expect is that sometimes, life has a way of evening the score.
