I know my first reaction to a flooded home and other natural disasters involving loss of lives would be no where near positive.

Positive thinking allows me to greet the day with a smile and each person I meet (or have interaction with) with a smile. Consider a worse time such as war. Positive thinking allowed the U.S. and other allies to prevail against enemies that were determined to succeed no matter the cost. And positive thinking makes you feel better.
