Impactful message in these few words, Jumbo J! Perhaps you practice yoga (as I do), and find comfort in the meditation.
Your words flow well, and you've made good use of alliteration with through and thought and think and then. Your accompanying artwork enhances your words very well.
Good luck in the contest! Alana

Hi Alana,
meditation and mindful yoga is the key to a strong and positive mid-set... so yes, I use all the tools available to achieve a positive outcome... although my yoga side of things is more a set of stretches that my body allows me to do.
Thank you so much for your wonderfully encouraging review and rating... it is most appreciated as are your well wishes for the contest.

Comment from Linda England Bonam
I really liked this one! No truer words were ever spoken, that's for sure. This is a great entry for the naani contest, and also a great reminder of the power of positive thinking! Bravo!~

Comment from Trybuck
To get it done, we first have to believe that it's possible. I agree with one of your other reviewers, you might want to consider changing one of the positive words, but that's up to you, Buck

Hi Buck,
yeah, the double positive in this case doesn't equate to a negative, more just a reinforcement of its intention... but thanks anyway for your suggestion it is appreciated.
Thank you for the review and rating my friend, again you are appreciated... take care and have a great weekend.

Amen my brotha, you said a mouth full, now that's the way to a speedy recovery, it's the way we think, fighting off negativity and trusting that all things will work together for good. Hang on in there my friend great Naani and best wishes in the contest. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Sheri... your words have there own way of shedding more positive light on the subject... I'm always going to be that half-full cup sorta guy... that's how I roll... if I didn't with this broken body, I would be spreading nothin' but misery everywhere I was... and that just makes me sad to think that... so I won't... it's all about choosing the mind-set you want to create... I choose positivity.
You know how much I appreciate your review, comments and that Bam! With the golden plus sign... mmmmmmm, maybe the sign is a positive reinforcement? Yeah, 'cause it is... thanks a heap sweet lady, the best wishes are accepted and locked away for later... you rock Lady 'S'... make my day all shinny and bright.

Comment from kiwisteveh
Your naani has a very clear and straight-forward message about the value of positive thought.
'If we think we can't then we never will' is probably true, although I am not so sure that the reverse is true...
Good luck in the contest.

Yeah Steve, I know what your saying, but I'd rather fail trying then not to have tried at all.
Thank s for the great review, rating and luck for the contest... it is most appreciated my friend... take care and have a wonderful weekend... don't know if you're a footy fan or not, but there are a plethora of Kiwi's playing in this finals race, which always makes for added entertaining action.

James, yes, I will be keeping an eye on the NRL - pity the Warriors shot themselves in the foot early in the season and couldn't manage to make the finals.
Election Day here today so another contest to keep an eye on - proportional representation at least makes the possibilities interesting depending on which way the coalitions turn out.
Hope your weather is better than ours!
Steve
Comment from mfowler
The perfect illustration supports the perfect truth of your naani. We all know these simple truths, but they are so easily ignored, and the associated wisdom falls on deaf ears. I like the juxtaposition of the assertion of positivity in the first couplet, and then the warning in the second. Good balance.Good luck.

Thank you... you are the first to recognise the intention of the double... I have had a couple of reviewers suggesting to change the double positive... but you got it my friend... thank you!
Also thank you for your wonderful review, rating and wishes of luck... it is all appreciated.

Comment from MM lives on :)
James...I was just chilling out to some positive vibes of Opeth and this little ditty popped in with a basic remainder of how we can change our future and our internal mechanism of meditative longing - belonging only to ONE. The sun arises a myriad of hope...less the moon enshrouds me.
YOU ROCK BRO!

Christopher,
Hey, what a truly poetic, physiological and musical review you have come to me with... crisp sounds that rise and fall like a surging ocean... it's so hard to write when all I can do is get swept away in the moment of it... and it's pretty much about how I have been going of late... so the calm ending left me chilled as well... thanks so much for that!
I really appreciate your support and the encouragement you give so freely... the channels to your consciousness are open and flowing freely... always look to the daybreak... that's where it all starts... and thank you for such a platinum review... you, my family are chosen out of genuine want.

Comment from mauial
In short poems like these I think one should as much as possi8ble avoid repetition of key words. In this poem maybe the second use of the word positive could be substituted with desired or some other word. Just me.

Hi Manuial,
the repetition was indeed reinforcement to the purpose, but I do get where your coming from... so, thanks for your review and rating, it is most appreciated.
