Protons, Electrons, and Neutrons

Have you ever worked with someone that was happy ALL the time? (annoying aren't they...)
I mean, I’d rather work with someone that was positive and upbeat all the time rather than someone not those things. They create a wonderful atmosphere, conducive to working in a positive manner. You can draw off of this energy and become energized yourself (because they're actually sharing it). It’s actually quite enjoyable once you think about it.
On the flip side however, is that person that comes in with a negative attitude ALL the time. They suck. Literally! They suck the energy right out of you. Sometimes you can even feel the FN leaches draining your energy right out from your chest. They too affect everyone around them, in a negative way. It’s like they get a kick out of it sometimes too. You know why right? It’s because they’re leaching everyone’s energy and getting a kind of “high” off of it. Only, it doesn’t last long because it was stolen instead of given, and when all that energy wears off, it’s like trying to stop a habit.
Energy is strange that way. It’s almost as if the universe is saying “Hey. Share your energy and you get rewarded, steal your energy and you get the DT’s.”
Then we have those folks that are either taking and giving their energy, usually at the same time, or they don’t do either. They could be devoid of energy. Sometimes I think I get like this. It’s a detachment from your feelings, kind of like when you’re at a funeral or ummm…a wedding (lol). You just build this shell around you and don’t let anyone take or give their energy to you. You just want to get through the day.
So I suppose you could categorize people into those three broad categories when it has to do with the energy I was speaking of in my “Handshake” entry.
I believe it’s a choice to be these types of people. Mind over matter.
If you believe that you get the choice every day to get up out of bed and have a great day, then more than likely you’ll have a good day. I think that’s a healthy mindset to choose everyday. If you choose to have a bad day, for whatever reason, you’re going to have a bad day.
I say, choose to be a Proton instead of an Electron or a Neutron.
If you can’t get up on the right side of the bed everyday, then put that side against the wall so you have to get up on the positive side of life and annoy all the Neutrons and Electrons with how positive you are!
