How much happier would we be if we didnt focus on the negative aspects of our lives so often? If you sit back and listen to someones conversation you are bound to hear them start complaining about something that really isnt that important. Not that I am a judge of what is or is not important in their lives, its just that our priorities are screwed up.
Why dont we ever focus on the happy moments of our lives? When something good happens to me it makes me smile for a bit and thats it. Sure I might look back on it later and smile a little. But I dont call one of my friends and "gossip" about it. But if I made a mistake on my checking account and bounced it I would fret over it for at least a week. Whats a $20 charge in the grand scheme of things?
Maybe if we pushed the negative out and embraced the positive even just a little more life wouldnt seem so pointless. Maybe if we made a couple people smile everyday we would feel a little better about ourselves. Maybe if we stopped mulling over what the point of life is and just lived it and appreciated it for what it is we would be less stressed out and confused.
Why is it so hard for some of us to let go of the negative? Because we're comfortable with it? Because it's societys norm? Or does bitching actually make us pervesly happy?
I have to mull this one over more. Maybe Im just crazy and I see things that arent really an issue, who knows.
