I Want to Be Positive About Life
Right now I’m not feeling as positive about life as I’d like to be. I have been through a recent tragedy, and I’m still trying to find a way to move forward in as positive a way as possible. I think that’s about all a person can do really, because life is not perfect.
It would be easy to remain positive at all times if nothing ever went wrong, but that’s not how life works; life just isn’t that gracious or accommodating.
I believe that life itself teaches us that positivity requires a certain measure of negativity in order for us to grow stronger, wiser, more compassionate and all the other characteristics that help to be a balanced and productive individual. If it were not for our own experience with hardship and pain, how would we be able to relate to others going through difficult challenges and are looking to us for comfort.
Life can be very challenging and difficult when tragic things happen that are completely out of our control. But we do however have control over whether those challenges and tragedies filter through our life in a negative or a positive way.
To be positive about life, for me at this time, is to find the most positive outcome that I can manage from this point forward.
