Affirm the positive, visualize the positive and expect the positive, and your life will change accordingly. #PositiveThurs #bepositive #b_u
"Thinking positively doesn't mean denying that there is anything wrong. But gives u time 2 think of ur mistakes." #positivethurs
"@Londonflairpr: Fri is #FollowFriday - so let's make Thurs #PositiveThurs - If your ship doesn’t come in, swim out to meet it! Love it!
Christmas shopping is finally done! #PositiveThursday
When you think negatively it's like taking a drug called 'Failure'. Like any drug take enough and it serves it's purpose! #PositiveThurs
God gave us two hands one for helping others and the other to help ourselves. #PositiveThurs
Hey – let’s get those toes tapping w/ “Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock,jingle bells swing...” #positiveThurs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IxIPITpU0k
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. #PositiveThurs
The less you care what others think the happier you will be. #PositiveThurs
Fill your mind with light,happiness, hope,feelings of security and strength,and soon your life will reflect these qualities. #PositiveThurs
Without struggle we would not live to enjoy the good things in our life. #positivethurs #bepositive #b_u

War is one of the most effective marketing tools. But making its horror an acceptable reality for citizens, we have to put great effort in creating and maintaining the right mythology - this is what I call: the Rhetoric of Defense.

На дан званичног представљања новог знака Културног центра Новог Сада, 17.12.2012, у јавност није отишла званична вест, већ превара да је нови знак кукасти крст. Дезинформација је имала невероватан одјек међу новинарима, са обзиром да је фотомонтажа лоше урађена, а тачне вести лако доступне.

На исти дан, сложно против ћирилице: у Вуковару проусташе јер је српска; a у Новом Саду? http://bit.ly/Uc0f9w
Очекујем да фашисти који ме нападају због ћирилице по угледу на хрватске колеге отворе групу ”Novi Sad nikad neće biti Нови Сад”
@nebojsarako Кукасти крст је на вашем профилу, не на нашој фасади. Такав је случај са већином вас који друге називате фашистима.
@N_Tomic @dadaarh To je onaj centar na kojem im je smetala latinica?
@N_Tomic @dadaarh wtf?
@Alex74Djukic Taj. @dadaarh
@N_Tomic @dadaarh taj simbol je nažalost zloupotrebljen od nacista, imao je neko lepo značenje, a iz hinduizma je. No zaboravih ga :-).
@N_Tomic @dadaarh Au covece, novi ljudi iz novih koalicionih vlasti bas umeju sa simbolima
@N_Tomic @dadaarh huh, već sam mislila da je stvarno...
@blejzmodesti Autor fotke kaže da jeste. Ko u NS, nek proveri, to je bar lako. @dadaarh
@Petrovaradinac @JanjicDragan @N_Tomic Skandal, a zna li se kad je postavljen?

All these dirty dishes and laundry to deal with. I'll never trust those Mayans again ...
It's the END of the WORLD as we know it....or just the start of a new ERA? End of the world party tonight at... http://fb.me/2tqdFE4KR
I don't care about the end of the world I just want it to be the end of this headache
Happy end of the world day!
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel lousy--not #mayans http://tinyurl.com/d8ztcpq MARK #SANFORD is running for congress #republican
GOD didn't want the world to end today because there is something great each of us have to do with our lives!
I'm guessing the 'end of the world' has been postponed.
RT @gabby_jeanneee: Nothing quite says end of the world like the fact that theres no food in my house.
@carnellm So your car is crippled on Mayan Apocalypse Day? Ah HAH! THAT's what they predicted! ::ducks for cover::
Maybe the Mayans meant blizzard.
First day of Winter, The apocalypse. Of COURSE this is the day my body would give in and get sick. #fail
REM's End of The World: Seems Like a Good Fit For Today. http://goo.gl/fb/xEU91
Because we follow the Jewish, rather than the ancient Mayan calendar, Shabbat will be celebrated as scheduled beginning tonight, with services at 7:30 p.m. And because the world as we know it isn't coming to an end, you're expected to stay on the job of working to make it a better one. Shabbat shalom.
Day 1: Of the apocalypse. Today, i am going to go to this new invention that we, The Survivors, came up with and its called a job. After much rummaging for food i managed to find a jug of milk, HOPEFULLY it is still good. Im going to attempt to pour it in my cereal right now. Damn times is haaaaarrd... Good luck out there people, its a whole new world! Be brave.
All that Mayan Apocalypse stuff in just in your head. Or is it...

If the Mayan calendar was right, what is the Best moment you'd want to remember about Football this season?
Mayan shots game. Do a shot every time you hear a bad radio host play R.E.M. today.
