I Am

I finally watched "I Am"
It's a documentary done by director Tom Shadyac after a near death experience.
It's been on the OWN network a few times.  There is some pretty powerful information-when you
hear someone tell you not to be negative-or put out negative thoughts-this will show you why.  
I've been pretty negative the past few yrs with all the crap that has gone on in my "world" but this
shows a strong reason to try to be more positive.  
 This makes me want to downsize-and live a different life.
