Today is Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk Day?

NATIONAL DON’T CRY OVER SPILLED MILK DAY

On February 11 th, Don’t Cry Over Spilled Milk Day is celebrated by many as a day to think positive.  Look on the bright side of things then carry that with you every day after.  Do not worry and do not stress over the little things.   Life is to short to let the little things bother us.  Do not look at the negative in things, look for the positive.  I know We all battle to think positive sometimes but we must train ourself to push away negative thoughts so we can have a more enjoyable life.

Everyone knows that unexpected or unplanned things happen in life, sometimes on a daily basis.  To help handle this is to find something good in all things.   With a positive attitude, life is much brighter and easier.

Don’t cry over spilled milk.

I know I need to retrain myself to be more positive and let the negativity fall by the wayside.  I'm a work in progress and still in training, haha!
