The Optimism Initiative is a project Kathryne began in February, 2009; and took online the following July.
The goal is to brighten your day, brighten your friends' days, and force you to seek out the true, good, and beautiful in life.
How do you do it?
it's easy.
Every day, at the end of the day, middle of the day, or 15 minutes in, look back and find one thing that made you smile. Write it down. It doesn't matter if it's the silliest little thing. It doesn't matter where you write it.
She liked the idea of a blog, because it can make your friends smile too... share the love; spread the joy, right?
If, by some chance, this whole thing inspires you and you start your own, let Kathryne know so she can add you to her list!

In actuality I am not a very positive blogger. To me it always feels so drab.
Half the time I vent, or I am just depressing when I right.
So lets be Real.
Reasonable, and Respecting here.
Life can get you down but if you can smile it may brighten all your friends' spirits.
Be Real, and Relish the time you have.
