If you choose to believe people are bad, you’ll look for evidence of it. And you’ll find it. Sometimes it’s one anecdotal event or word. Or you might bend words or slightly misinterpret actions to fit your desired perspective.
You can also look for the good in people.
As everyone holds good and bad characteristics, looking for the good ones may make life more enjoyable.
We are all searching for our favourite things. We try new foods to see if we can find our absolute favourite. We assess different political and philosophical ideas to find our favourite one.
We also look for our favourite person and people. We seem to be on a continuous, never-ending quest to find our favourites. When will we be satiated?
Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Oftentimes you just need to find the better angle. Keep looking if you haven’t been able to make it work yet.
Inner, World or something in between, find it as soon as you can.
There are so many reasons to smile in a day. That you are alive is a great one! Hopefully you have your health too. Perhaps it’s not perfect, but if it’s pretty good, usually, then you’re blessed. Finally, having a few coins in your pocket is also a great reason to smile. Now if you have someone special, or a few people, to share this feeling with, then you have it all!
You can make assumptions, guess or shrug your shoulders, or you can simply find out why. Ask the questions. Listen to the answers. It sounds so simple. Because it is.
Friends can be like a comfy pair of jeans you never want to throw away, or like socks that get worn out, or even like a fine wine improving with age.
Find your friends and enjoy them in that moment.
Sometimes we have a situation which we wish wasn’t happening. We may focus on how it has affected us negatively. This time, try to see how it’s a blessing in disguise. Because of this challenge, who did you meet? What did you learn? How will you build on this experience to make life even better?
Go after it. Search. Explore. Discover. Spend one week and search online, talk to people, watch clips and try things out. Be proactive. Then shortlist three of your favourite ideas. Explore them for three months. Then go for one all in. You can change later if it is no longer for you.
Don’t wait all your life to find it. Hunt it down.
Some call it balance and others say harmony. You know what it means. Go get some. Create this in your life.
