Sometime life hands us what we think is more than we can handle. There are situations in life that happen that make you feel like everything is going horribly. The thing that I want to embedded into all of your brains is that it truly does get better. The phrase it gets better is becoming some what of a cliche but it's a cliche that has an innate truth behind it. I think that when bad things happen people tend to let themselves get into a funk. They dwell on the negative aspect on life instead of focusing on all the good things.
Life is a constantly changing thing, and sometimes that change can be scary and unsettling, but if we stop being scared, stop letting ourselves feel like everything is going wrong, we may see how wonderful the world around us really is.
Negativity is something that has the ability to easily consume us, but we control how we handle it. Instead of putting all our energy into thinking about the negatives, we need to put our energy into the positive. And do things that make us truly happy. Let ourselves be open with people, not close ourselves off. I read somewhere that the average happy human needs human contact at least six times a day. We can't cut ourselves off from the world just because something bad happens. Let the people who care about you well care about you.
I'm not saying you have to chronicle every aspect of your life to another person by any means. You don't even have to tell them anything at all about the negative things thats bothering you, but let people help you take you mind off of things. Don't hole yourself up in your house by yourself, Netflix is a very amazing invention but it definitely can get boring. My advice is to find somewhere you've always wanted to go that's driving distance, grab a friend, pick a day and just go. Don't think about it just go.
Do things that make you feel energized and happy and alive. No matter how hard things get, it's important to be genuine. I understand not letting everyone know every emotion your feeling, I'm not telling you to do that, I'm just saying when your nice to someone be wholeheartedly kind. Don't say something to someones face, and say something else behind their back. It won't make you happy, it's never okay to put someone down for your own gain.
Everyone is fighting their own battles, it's important to get out of your own head and realize, that other people are going through things too. The word negative is one that describes one aspect of your life, don't let it become a word that describes who you are as a person.
