“ In life, it is easy to extract
negatives out of everything we possess, everything we act and everything we
counter………………but to see the positive
side of everything we face is a rare art……….”
“A well-settled job, life moving
smoothly and an unending enjoyment in whatever you were doing……………then life
took a sudden turn and everything changed. Don’t you think god has been unkind
on you or why this happened to you only?” I asked him on a casual chat on that sunny
evening amid a silence.
“No, I don’t think so……………. This happened to me because probably only I
have the boldness and gumption to face
and pass through it in the whole family.” He replied and left me awestruck with the way
he saw the situation in hand.
Well, when majority of junta try to search for negatives out of positives rather than
acting vice-versa, the reply was an eye-opener for me. Unarguably, most of
us or rather every one of us is encircled by small or big problems related to
family, relationship, career etc.
For few of them, there might not
be a solution at present, there
might not be a door to exit but
every problem comes with a solution. Difference is the timing………….. And optimism is a boat that sails fiercest of
the storms…….!!!!!!!!
We get a job, crib about profile
and package.
We get a partner to move ahead in life with, but qualm about not having the gorgeous
one in the lot. We have a gadget according to our need, but needs solace when
we see someone with an Apple phone. We have well settled
family, but always keep worrying about being dispersed due to other
obligations.
We see ourselves as an object
of pity and talk much about the struggles and failures. We want to
move ahead in life but couldn’t do that because we always look backwards.
We carry the medals of being unlucky throughout our lives.
We look at ourselves in the mirror and count the negatives rather than positives
in our personality.
And in the process, we magnify our problems……!!!!!!!!
I always believed in the fact
that happiness
is the choice we make and hence, we never look at the positive side and
choose unhappiness as our carriers. You have a job, feel good about
your hard work and the proud it brings. Think about giving the best out of you
because bucks don’t matter in long run. And if you still feel annoyed by the
job in hand, roam around the city with a resume in your hand.
You have a partner, try and
create moments out of nothing, feel good spending time with him/her rather than
feeling envious about not having a drop-dead gorgeous beauty. Try and catch the
intrinsic beauty he/she deserves rather than assuming her to be an object
of your personal desires….!!!!!!
You might not be the smartest
or macho one in the group of people you belong to, but you can be
the one by your deeds. Dwell deeper into the smartness and don’t
assess physical beauty, but assess intellectual and moral standards. See the underlying potential and pledge to do justice to it.....!!!!!!
Well, no matter how much we question whatever we don’t have or the
problems we face, there is a uniform distribution across the human
beings……..and if I am wrong……relax for a moment and analyze…….!!!!!!!!!
Soaked in the awesomeness of the answer he gave to me, I asked: “How you were able to see the positive side
of the situation?”
He curtly replied “Everybody
of us wears the same glass……. difference is the color of the glass and that’s
how we see a particular situation………….”
(P.S: I still believe, most of you, after reading this would be interested to know about the person I mentioned here.......let me tell you.....I love taking anecdotal evidences to give a clear message about whatever i want to communicate......Don't be too naive to dwell deep into who the person is, rather try and grab the message to move ahead in life.)
