                I was brought up on "You don't know until you try..." And encouraged to try and try again, and then again... You get the picture. In other words, "You can."

                I can't is applicable in certain circumstances. But we all have been created to achieve great things. That's the whole purpose of living. If we restrict ourselves, we "can't" go anywhere. It requires a positive frame of mind to think that all things are possible.

                I was offering this lesson to my 3 1/2 yr old grandperson the other day... Never say, I can't... Say, I haven't yet...  I don't know if she heard me, but she'll have more opportunities, no doubt, to hear it again.

                Uplifting post . and a word we need to be reminded of some times. Positive thinking is so much better than a negative word like can't.

                I was brought up not on  "you can"  but on "you will".
