Positive Post Tuesday
It’s Tuesday again. Time to write something positive. I have noticed more and more people getting involved in this thing and I think it’s awesome. I think that it has and can continue to grow into something really cool. With more folks coming every week I wanted to re-post the idea behind this though most people already know. The “guidelines” are pretty loose and it’s a pretty simple thing. Write something nice, then share it. This is from the original post:
I want to try something. (and it’s pretty early in the morning so I don’t know how good of an idea this is) I want today to be “Positive Post Tuesday”. Let’s today, all write something on our blogs that builds another person up. Someone who is doing an amazing job at something, or someone that is changing the world around them by living the way they are supposed to, or someone that you feel needs building up and deserves it. Write about them and comment here and post the address of your blog below.* Then at the end of the day we can all go through the links and check them out. Sound good?
That’s it. It’s that simple. Like I said, it’s been a pretty amazing thing to see people getting involved and coming up with nice things to say about people. We live in a pretty cynical world and it’s cool to see things that will bring smiles to peoples faces every week.
We have some relatively new friends that we had over this week for the first time. We have been trying to hang out with them for weeks now, but haven’t been able to align schedules. Michael leads worship at our church and him and his wife Andrea have become good friends of ours. We switch off driving the kids to school but now with Kristin working, and us with only one car, it seems like they have really taken the brunt of driving the kids to school. It’s a pretty temporary situation, but it’s still amazing of them to do.
Michael and Andrea are also from California so we have that in common and even weirder, Michael grew up about twenty minutes from where I grew up. Small world huh? Anyway we have had a great time getting to know them more and hanging out with people that seem so similar to us. It’s fun to be able to talk about the same places and even some of the same people, as if we have known each other for years. They are awesome genuine people that are easy to be around and unbelievably caring. It will be awesome to get to know them better and become better friends.
I posted this on Sunday but it’s probably the most applicable person for a first PPT post.
I like this idea, brody, think I’ll join you in positive post tuesday. but not till after work..
Hey Brody,
Auburn Annie is out of town, but she did a PPT entry for today. I’d link it for her, but I don’t know if that is cool. Thought you’d like to know…stephanie
My positive post for today- I actually wrote it on Sunday…. but I can’t stop thinking about it. Ryan and Alissa moved me- I feel diffrent- I want to be diffrent. Anyway- it was awesome.
I think this is my first one. Today is my sister’s birthday. You can read it here.

I don’t think I’ve quite got it figured out yet. Today I wrote a post about how clock snooze alarms frustrate me. I’m a slow learner though.
Nice series of posts recently, by the way.
Ok. My post may be a little offline. It’s MOSTLY positive – just in a trash talking kind of way.
I’ll work on it.
you should check out my positive post.
[...] Positive Post Tuesday. So here it is almost 11pm and I forgot that today is Positive Post Tuesday thought up by this guy. [...]
