"My method is uncertain. It's a mess, but it's working." I try to tell myself that when my life gets out of control. LoL.

I hear it in my head a little higher pitched. I love smile like you mean it. That one is accompanied by a growl. Maybe you don't growl when you say it though. <br /><br />I don't even know what kind of week I've had. I hope yours was better. Maybe crafts were involved?robgirlbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398614063792587098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-64696864356582847312013-10-10T21:46:51.071-07:002013-10-10T21:46:51.071-07:00OMG!!

(sorry for the shouty caps ;) I do have mantras - I really started saying them a lot after reading The Happiness Project. :) My fav - one I repeat to several members of my family is 'Smile Like You Mean It'. Another is 'Make it a great day...or not. It's your choice.' <br /><br />I hope you've had a great week, Robyn! *hugs*Bookworm Brandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834408515209743135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-90162092167929488022013-10-10T10:50:18.712-07:002013-10-10T10:50:18.712-07:00Those are great mantras, Athina.

"Anything can happen" and 'Everything happens for a reason." :)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing, Robyn. <br />Here is my TOL http://between-my-lines.blogspot.gr/2013/10/think-out-loud-possibility.html <br /> Athinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11485560779521386981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-75672348888425174892013-10-10T00:32:53.926-07:002013-10-10T00:32:53.926-07:00Hmmm that's so funny because I've never re...Hmmm that's so funny because I've never really thought of a mantra, as you say. Teehee, But if I think real hard, I tend to tell myself, "don't do it, don't do it, stupid, stupid, stupid" all the time. LOL I don't know what that says about me to you but, I tend to put myself in a situation where I get mad at myself.

The white bunny has to be one of the funniest scenes of all time. My stepsister had made this Southern Comfort rum cake and I have no alcohol tolerance. And a sweet tooth. Then I watched The Holy Grail. What a combination! It's the only Monty Python movie I've watched but Mr. Bean makes me laugh until I cry.<br /><br />Do you have a Monty Python recommendation? robgirlbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398614063792587098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-25434327478083988952013-10-09T23:40:27.135-07:002013-10-09T23:40:27.135-07:00One of my most-used mantras is 'everything wil...One of my most-used mantras is 'everything will work out perfectly fine'... And I try to always stay positive, or find something positive in every situations.<br /><br />And I <b>love</b> Monty Python!
