A Boost for.. Positive Blogging

You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime. - Dale Carnegie

Wow.. I just received a great review for this blog, called 'A Boost for Positive Living'. What a beautiful and welcome encouragement for blogging, thank you so much Mary Ward from Do You Digg It.com!!

It once again reminded me what the impact is of explicitly showing your appreciation to your love, your kids or coworker. It is so worth the effort, just give it a try!
And with that, I would very much like to show my appreciation to you, my readers. As my way of saying THANK YOU, I would like to share with you the beautiful photography of Rarindra Prakarsa, I already showed in a previous post called Stunning Photography by Rarindra Prakarsa. His photography, and other beauties, can be found with the tag Photography.

The image evokes such warmth and gratitude for what the world offers human beings. Each moment is reason for blessings but what you have to feel grateful for isn't always visible, tangible or describable. Your love and caring are felt.

You are welcome, Ellen. It's a much deserved review, but I guess I don't have to tell your readers that! :).

For those of you that visit Ellen's review, there is a 'Digg' button at the bottom of the post. Digg her blog and share one of your favorites with the rest of the world, while giving Ellen some hard-earned attention!

Ellen, thank you for sharing these powerful words and images. What you say is so true. In my book, The Difference a Day Makes: 365 Ways to Change Your World in Just 24 Hours, one of the ways is to offer 3 compliments a day to strangers. Last week, a reader in New Zealand emailed me to say she had started to do this, and it was changing her entire outlook. "What we do unto others, we do unto ourselves." - Marc Ian Barasch, Field Notes on the Compassionate Life

I am grateful for all you do.
