   That's a pretty big question, Kevina.  There's always something good happening somewhere in the world, though I'm guessing you mean to pin it down a little tighter than that.
   As for me, I always anticipate good things.  Expectation is a powerful survival tool.  The old adage, "Expect the best but prepare for the worst"...that's one that works for me.
   One good thing that happened just yesterday:  I had to cut a hole in a piece of counter top to fit a kitchen sink.  It required the use of a jig saw and did not allow for much of a margin of error.  After thinking I'd messed up and cut the hole slightly too large--which would have meant another expensive trip to Home Depot--I found to my surprise that the sink fit the hole perfectly. 
   So, short answer, YES, I anticipate good things to happen this year, next year, and every year to come.
   Bad things too, no doubt, but that's another question.

   I have learned to always hope for the best, but also expect the worst, each and every day.

   Lets hope so, it would be pretty rubbish if none of us thought good things would happen in the next year.
   
   Personally my husband I are making a drastic change in our career path and I am hoping for lots of good things with that.

   Anticipating good things, but surely not upset much if it doesn't happen, I have learned more and more to go with the flow or it will only bring sadness. I do plan to work more on the book I'm writing with hopes to finish by year end. My motivation hasn't been strong lately, I hope to change that soon.

   Good and bad. There are always ups and downs. The good things include catching up or at least getting some sleep, how much I'm saving this year, starting a new life chapter, crossing off some goals, etc. Some of the bad things could include taking time off work, lack of sleep, extra expenses, dependency on David working, etc.

   Absolutely I have experienced "good things" every year and now that I am turning 26 for the second time; (wait a second, I just had to turn...).
   I have no doubt "good things" are coming again. Yet now that I am contemplating this, the only reason that I can recognize "good things" is probably because I can deliniate them from the not-so-good. Now, I being a slow-learner must experience to learn; therefore I am blessed with recognizing good because I have indeed witnessed the not-so-good. Wow, that in itself is a blessing or if I may add a "good thing" You have just delivered a "good thing" to me. Thank you, most kindly.
   Here's to more "good things" to come!

    Nope. The most I can do is pray it will get better but I can't see anything good happening in the next few years. In fact I see more homeless for the U.S.A and more unemployment because it is known once you hit six months unemployed, no one will even look at your resume. The whole world is a powder keg right now and I see a huge war brewing. I see our nation all becoming part time employees, so the companies can avoid obmacare. 
    
    But in the future, yes things will get better slowly when our jobs come back to us. When a great man like Henry Ford will rise against the norm and restore the middle class. When we the people will use the power of our votes to tell Washington who is in charge and remind them who THEY work for. Yes I pray for a better future for my children and grand children and I believe that in years to come it will get better.
