Keeping positive is a daily challenge. I tell myself I'm ready to go and I'm not afraid of dying, but then I get angry about all the things I still want to do before I die. As my abilities and mobility decline, I'm able to do less. I find that to be the most frustrating of all. The important thing is to truly enjoy and immerse yourself in activities you love. I love to read, and for the last 30 years have been so totally immersed in my career that I hardly ever read for pleasure. Now I can indulge that passion as much as I like. I read hard copy, ebooks, and listen to audio books -- depending on my mood. One of my favorite things to do is listen to my audio book on my smart phone while doing laundry. It's a little thing, but I get that sense of accomplishment and being useful while listening to a fascinating story. Video chatting with my grandsons is a source of great joy for me. I'm able to spend time painting and drawing - other old hobbies I set aside while chasing the almighty dollar. Learning of my health condition, if nothing else, led me to finally retire. Without that, who knows how long I would have continued to work. Just look for the little things that "spark your joy" - that is the best way I know to stay positive.
