Positive Reflections: What Do You Hope People Say About You?

This year, my reply to the rerun of the Daily Prompt’s question – “What is one thing I hope people say about me?” – I hope people continue to say I am a positive person.

A relaxed, positive person who realizes change begins with me.

2024


I remember the moment, many decades ago, when someone told me I had a great sense of humour.

I had no idea about this of myself.

I was shocked, because I was so inwardly twisted with undiagnosed mental health issues that I couldn’t see “myself” in the world; I depended on external sources to define me.

Today, I love to laugh. Truly laugh. I see beautiful humour in everything, including myself.

When something strikes me as funny, I laugh. Out-loud. Joyfully. With glee.


My husband enjoys telling this story:

It was North Ontario.

Stephanie and I were having breakfast in a hotel’s cafeteria area.

Something took her to be funny and she started to laugh, the way she always does.

Slowly, the breakfast crowd started laughing, not at her, with her.

Her laughter was contagious that morning, bringing smiles to all while we ate our cereal.


Today, I hope you find something truly wonderful to laugh about.

S, 🌻
