BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Stress Management how to have the positive thinking

I dont like my grandmother in law.. she is strange woman i ever seen in my life. She is now 79 old

Sometimes i cant imagine that i have to live with her for the rest of my life( i am married and living with her in one roof)

She has been great to my husband as my parents in law divorce since my husband was three yearsa old, Grandmother has been taking care of him since

I have been over protective towards myself, i rarely speak to her.
To see her everyday is like a nightmare....

Well, I don't mean to be callous, but if she is 79 years old, then surely you won't be living with her for the rest of your life. Only the rest of her life!
What is so strange about her?

In respect of 'Positive thinking', I can give a tip:-
If one like to think positive and get rid of negative attitude it's very simple to add this great asset to your personality.

"Do the things starting from Right"
Examples: In everyday life make this habit to start from right.
When wearing cloths : Put the right hand in the shirt/Put the right leg in the pant first
When puting on shoes: Put the right foot first
So expand these examples to each and every activity and soon you will see the positive results.

all i can say is be patient and understand your grandmother in law. she is now 79 years old. just dance to her music.

How would putting the right arm in your shirt have any effect on anything?? Please explain?

Depending on how serious you are about wanting to make your situation better, it might help.

Think of it this way, it's not what she "does to you" but what you do for her that makes the big difference here in the large scope of thing. Young people have no idea what a huge impact they make in the lives of older people. When you get to be in your late 70's and 80's you start losing your spouse, slow down, get ill, and get depressed. A young person showing you love and kindness can make your life enjoyable and less of a "drag" on others and more of a joy if they just change their approach/attitude. Life is what it is. It's all a matter of attitude and how you look at things. If she bothers you as much as you expressed, she is definitely aware of it. I buried 3 aging grandparents in the last couple of years and cook for a father-in-law in his mid 80's so I'm sensitive to the feelings of the aging population. I really think you can have a happier life if you change your outlook and walk in her shoes for a short while. That's just my humble advise.

I will go with Dudley Good, he is right.

Sweetie:

My father-in-law was a particularly ornery man who always gave me flack. He lived beside me about an acre away. he was very nosy and was always wondering what I was"up to". I worked third shift and was sleeping one day when he called, woke me up and asked.. "What are your dogs barking at?"
I told him "It's none of your business!'
he told me to kiss his [censored]
then we both laughed.

I am not sure what happened that day, but from that day on we got along. Perhaps he had learned a new respect for me, I don't know. Eventually that respect turned to love. I miss him now, and his dear sweet wife who was like a mother to me.

It is not always possible. Some people will never give in, but open yourself to love and you might find it in strange places. All you can do is make sure you aren't the one denying the chance, the rest is up to her.
