    I have never heard of it before, @Marie Mallery . Can you give us a little more explanation how the movie fits in with the thread topic of positive thoughts , because maybe I am not the only one who has not heard of this movie.

    Well, Bobby, both of us do "count our Blessings" and thank the Lord for those Blessing each and every time we say our daily prayers.

    But, actually, "count your Blessings" isn't what this thread is about, at least I don't think so. IOW, we can all, including the OP, "count your Blessings" and request more "positive points" given in this forum, but way to many things going on in both America and the World for many to think too positive.

    OK, here is another happy thought for those who might be down at the sorry state of pizza (i.e., soggy, saggy, dough laden pizza with stuff on top that isn't fresh). I have found superb (may the best there is), thin crust pizza with fresh toppings on a crust that doesn't sag or droop and has the perfect "crunch" when you bite into it. See pizza nirvana below.

    As you might suspect, it's not from a chain. Rather, it is the product of a one-off, hole-in-the-wall place that survived the covid stupidity and is now sometimes open. The size of the slice is another positive.

    I love me some thin crust. When I make pizza at home, I make 2 pies out of a single dough recipe.

    Watching your video below it reminded me of another oriental family who had a baby camel the mother rejected, so it wept, but it turned out to be a good outcome for all,

    I don't think I've had negative feelings that are sticking now...with Soros control et al.

    Things have worked out in my life and I can remember when I worried about money etc in my younger years and it's all worked. Today is different I believe.

    I've embraced Science of Mind in the 80's and talk about a life changing experience but there was NO COVID garbage, and no lockdowns and business closures....

    Alaska is not a state I have any interest in but have to say during the last years of tv
    watching I was into some Discovery and NGO programs on life in Alaska and enjoyed those shows...but have no desire to even visit there.

    I like the easier and warmer way of life.

    Illigitimi non cardorundum: Don't let the bastards grind you down, sweetheart.

    That is what they are trying to do. I look at people like Hillary and Nancy and Schumer et al and it makes me feel dirty. Absent a corrupt system, they are nothing...and I doubt they will ever realize it. People like that lack the capacity for introspection.

    We are not them. We don't want to be them. We cannot be them...it's not in us.

    We do what we can do, we fight where we can fight, we know we are not alone in it, and we let go of the rest.

    Life sucks and then you die. I get down at times about all the going on in the world,I take that to mean I have tuned into it more than need be, My life is decent as long as the rest of the world stays out. ;)I get bummed out about mhatney like most people. But I bum out more that seems everyday there is something else in,on, or around my body - that changes enough for me to go Damn what hell next?:D
