People are locked on the negative -- take a look around the next time you go out for a drive or a walk or to shop or to eat. I'm not sure if this has to do with the media (television, news, talk shows, music, movies, computer games, etc), but people better start realizing they are responsible for their own actions. Please, let's start acting UP in a positive way, sending ripples that will affect an everlasting paradigm.

Very cool imagery. And a lovely idea. Ripple #1: Peace and blessings to all the who come upon this happy gentle thread. May you find many joyous ripples in this day!

Thanks TheC for the question!

Thanks. And that's the meaning behind my orgName by the way.

Peace; you're ripple has been accepted and reVerber8ed -- the "verb" part, of course, being Love.

I posted this a long time ago and got a few responses(thanks 2 those who did).So i guess i got my answer.

Absolutely amazing.This thread died in record time just like i thought it would.

Have you had your plus sign today?

Like I said in the other thread TheC, the reason for it almost dying is that most people sort the threads by the last post, and people tend to reply and post to the silly or negative threads much faster than the positive ones, so the good ones disappear, which is very sad.

Yes, I think that the media is forever focusing too much on the negative sides of things, some local media are good at bringing out local "heroes", but the majority and the bigger "fish" so to speak know very well that if it's about happiness very few people will read.

As for the Org, the same goes, but that is not my problem, and it's not the reason that what is happening is happening (hmmm...forgive me for that one ). The reason is that there are opinions expressed by members of the Org that break one or more laws by being racist or sexist, or slandering other members. That is what some of us now turn against, that the beautiful people that put so much time and effort into this site, who gave us a second home if u will, will now have to pay for what some people say and express. We will all pay, and lose something we really liked and needed once upon a time - a place where we could discuss the music of the extremely gifted man Prince Rogers Nelson. We need to find that again. Thank you for bringing this up TheC

Ok ok here's my positivity for the day.

Actually positivity is a very distructive, unproductive state. U do realise this very thread xists bcause of the negative feeling there isn't enough positivity?

But if it makes u happy, here u go:
***my dose of positivity 4 2day***
