POLLY WHO?

"My sister is impossible!" she groaned as she stomped into the room.

"No matter what happens, she sees the bright side."
Shaking her head she continued…

"We could be in the middle of an earthquake and she'd start grinning and singing that stupid song!" 

"You know…"
'I feel the earth move…' check it out

"She sugarcoats everything!"
"You know all those hinky expressions," she continued.


'Make lemonade out of lemons'
'Find the silver lining'
"Yuk!  That's my sister!"

"Don't you just want to throttle those people who always look at the world like this?" she asked imploringly.



What do ya say?
Where do you stand on this one?

How many times have you heard someone say:

"Well, I know I'm supposed to look on the bright side but…"

What do ya say?
How do you find the balance… or do you?
