It Will Always be Half-full

Part of our existence is to be involved in a difficult situation where the easiest thing to do is to run away and forget or merely wishing to have lacunar amnesia- the loss of memory about one specific event. Or if not, are you in a situation where the flow of energy around you isn’t accommodating to your senses? Are you in the same boat as I am? WELCOME ABOARD!!

At times I complain. I often become aware of the negative rather than the positive. I always feel the depression rather than the optimism of a situation. I even feel it in some people. Because of this, I miss a lot of good things in my life. I fall short to appreciate and give valuable meaning when something is unbearable like being unenthusiastic to go to work, having difficult people around, the inner struggle of missing my family and my old life, belly fats, my not so perfect eyesight, and so on. I let my perception draw close to the bad things. But just recently, I sat down and just close my eyes and remember the good things that have happened to me. Now I learn to value my work as I thought to myself, “ there are people who wished they have the job you currently have”, “ those people will definitely strengthen your inner values as they will always remind you that people are really unique”, “ eventhough you miss your family, they couldn’t be more proud of you that you have crossed the seas just to be where you are right now and that you have travelled international” , “be lucky you have that tummy as others are suffering from having ascites-accumulation of fluids in the abdominal cavity.”, “ be thankful for your eyes,they may not be the perfect eyes but remind yourself that there are a lot of blind people who daily kneeled to give them the sight that you have” and so on. I am now absorbing the true wisdom of the beauty of everything that is wrapped within it. Think the oyster as your struggle now,it may be ugly and stinky but within it, it can produce a beautiful pearl.
