To See the World In a More Positive Light
I have consciously decided to see the world in a more positive light
despite being bullied by 4 girls in 6th grade,
despite being screamed at by my mother (my mother picked on me
a lot when I was a child, taking out her anger and frustration with life
on me almost every day),
despite not having gone on a family trip before (I actually don’t want
to at this point in my life; if I found ‘The One’, I would go on a trip or two
with him),
despite meeting one disgusting man after another in my twenties (leading me to hold on to the quick perception that men senselessly take unfair advantage sexually and financially),
despite being aware of a countless number of injustices that take place
in the world every second now.
My wonder of the world far exceeds the sad view that I have of it.
How often do you raise your eyes to what’s in front of you and see it in a positive light?
How often do you feel that positive light spreading throughout inside of you?
Do you feel it at all?
