Submitted by gailhand on Sat, 05/09/2009 - 13:39.As a proud citizen of Portland and service to our beautiful Rose City I have created a website called: Portlandisnotdepressed.com

The Power of a Positive Attitude
Submitted by gailhand on Wed, 03/18/2009 - 11:16.A time out, any time out is a welcome respite for any of us. This past week I flew to NJ for a late scheduled college program and then stumbled upon perfect timing for the NCAA Big East Men's Basketball Championship.

The story is a bit comical and reminded me that a positive attitude and visioning is the key to life's excitement!
