Contest 4.51 Looking Back/Look Forward #ccc - life in a positive way
I don't think we should waste our time in sadness and complaints when everything seems to be out of our hands.
What I mean is that if an event happens that delays you on the way to work, or when you take your children to school, or simply your transportation is delayed, I don’t think that there is a solution if you proceed immediately to get upset and to say expletives in the air. There are people who at once already talk about their bad luck, about how bad it will be for them from then on and other things.
To take the reins of our negative thoughts is up to us. Transforming it into something positive is in everyone's best interest. What is out of our hands, I mean out of our hands to solve, then it is best to let it go, don’t get caught up in a useless thought of frustration.
Life is full of pleasant moments and moments that are not, it is a balance and when we know how to manage both we will be fine with ourselves.
If you have been delayed on the road, if the transport does not arrive, if you have forgotten something in the least indicated place, do not take it to the extreme because everything has a solution while you have life. Go ahead, adopt your best position, look at things from another point of view. Look for the best part of that bad situation and connect with the peace and tranquility that your being deserves.
Living in agony because of all the bad situations that arise is not advisable to maintain your health. Time goes by, life takes care that everything keeps flowing. Whether or not you think for better or for worse, the only person who will benefit or be affected by your way of proceeding will be you.
Nobody likes to be next to a grumpy person who fights and gets upset about everything. At the end of the road, he is left alone because he has no one to share his displeasure with.
It is so nice to be grateful for everything that happens to us. Gratitude will always be rewarded with good events, whereas if you complain about everything that no longer has a solution within your reach then you will not attract the good things that could present themselves to you because you will not be able to see them, simply because you have your eyes closed to see the new that will come.
Sometimes what we assume is a bad event that affects us is the best thing that could happen to us and in the long run you will be able to see it if you have an open mind and an open heart.
I can give you the example of a person who is in a hurry to take her child to school and by bad luck, according to her, she missed the transportation and had to return with her child along with all the inconveniences that this brings, she leaves in a bad mood, starts the day arguing with herself.
Something happens on the way and the transport had an accident, the same transport where her son was supposed to go. There are injured, parents are running all over the place, protection units are activated and it becomes an unfortunate event, this accident.
Then you think... was it the worst thing that could happen to her and her child or is it the worst thing for other people? It’s then we begin to realize that what must happen happens and that we should always be grateful. After all, preserving life is the most important thing and as long as we are alive there are opportunities to enjoy and just as many ways to feel for other situations. Achieving balance in life is difficult but it can be done with patience and optimism.

Have a great day. I thank you for your presence in my publications.
I am @gertu13 from Venezuela to the world.
If you just miss the bus I understand but what if you miss your plane and with that lose your money? It all depends on the event if there's a solution or if there's a reason for everything.
Enjoy your weekend dear friend.
You don't lose the airfare, I believe you get a refund.
I believe that in life everything has a for good if it is not for the short term, it is for the long term. That is what I have learned in my 60 years of being on the move.
I doubt missing transport always works out positive. It's good if it does,there's a good reason why.
I doubt school or your employer fall for it if you come up with these excuses or someone you have an appointment with.
Thanks for joining dear. 🍀💖
You have many doubts my dear friend.
It all depends on how you look at it, my dear. It is the way I live my life, I find it more favorable "FOR ME" to be positive and always see the good in everything bad that happens. I respect your doubts and your opinions but they do not change mine.
