That it is so very simple and effortless to slip into negativity, sadness and depression. It takes some doing to remain positive and remain optimistic in the face of adversity. Problems aren't new to anyone. Your problems seem humongous to the you. A kindergarten child's problems are as real and huge to him or her as are problems to a CEO of a huge organization. It is so much about choice. You can choose to drift in the direction that the negative thoughts take you, or stay firm and see the good even in the mess you are in. If nothing else, you can just learn to laugh it off. Maybe accept the situation. But most importantly keep the faith alive. Faith the size of a mustard seed. And never doubt the deliverance of what you ask for. You will notice it in the small things of everyday life. Suddenly you won't become a billionaire, neither will the world become a better place overnight. You will notice it in the small prayers being answered daily. Leading to a growing faith.
Long time ago, on a post I had written, Wanda (a wonderful human being who reads my blogs no matter how ridiculous the content) had left a comment which said something to the effect of "Raise you head high and remember to look up everyday". Since then I've always felt that whenever I do so, I feel so much better. Thank you Wanda :-)
And Thank you everyone for your patience with my writings and leaving your precious comments on my posts no matter how grim they've been in the recent past. I have not been responding to them off late, but I sure have read them. Thank you so much!
HAPPY NEW YEAR.

You are a friend Stillness and friends are always there for one another, no matter what we express or feel! Everyone has moments of questioning doubts, just let them be passing.
Smiles for you~Wanda

Fron 'vent' to this 'this' in 10 days is an awesome change! :p
How are you doing?
It is always worth a try, keeping one's spirits up. But we do falter from time to time as we are only human after all! But still I like to try and laugh even through the bad parts. Love Di ♥
WANDA: Thanks for being there for me always Wanda. Loads of love to you :)
JACKIE: It's an honor and a privilege for me to be friends with all of you :-) Thank YOU! Loads of love to you :-)
REFLECTIONS: You brought a huge smile on my face by saying that! God bless you and Thank you :D
SPARKLING: Let's say I got bored of being sad, gloomy, weary and every word that has a negative connotation! :)
Getting better every weekend. How about you? Long time no chat!
DIANA: I must be too much of a human being, because I falter, fall and then get up way too often! But yes, making a conscious decision to be positive, calm and happy is worth the effort. Or so I've just re-realized :-)
