There'll always be a silver lining amidst life's trials. Image: solodialogue.wordpress.com |
Certain situations in our lives could hurt us and really
break us. There’s the thought of bankruptcy looming around or the thought of
all your friends turning their back on you. The situation may take its course
and we are helpless about it. But what comes after is for us to act upon.
Situations may be bitter and seemingly hopeless, but how we react to it could
mean our saving grace or breaking point.
How do we react? Do we drown ourselves in alcohol? Smoke
ourselves to death? Dig ourselves deeper into depression? Or eat our lives away
with drugs? We cannot control events in our lives.
We cannot stop a person from dying. We cannot help our loved
ones from breaking our hearts. We cannot prevent financial breakdowns. But what
we can do is always hope for the better. It’s how we react to things that make
all the difference.
So, how do we do that? Do we react with a positive mind that
looks into all the goodness in life despite the trials that afflict us? Or do
we react with negative feelings and sink into it? The choice is yours. But
remember, there’s so many beautiful, blissful things in life that dwelling into
the dark, negative side would mean robbing yourself the right to all the
wonders that God’s hands have to offer. AMEN.
