Realistically, some of the worst things in the world can turn out to be the best. To some, it may seem like a stupid and insensitive thing to say, but life is only as good as we make it in that aspect of perception, however we want it to be an outside job. The opportunity can come in the form of a problem and actually come in the form of a seemingly bad problem. So I can only humbly give this advice: Keep your wits about you. Keep your minds up, because realities that are big problems can become big solutions if we are calm and solution-oriented.
Sometimes I think about the fact that life “throws curveballs, screwballs and everything else” to use baseball terms. We always have to hit them smart, and even when there are some misses and strikes, we have to keep “working the bat until it connects with the ball.”
In fact, quitting the game is never the answer, but approaching it differently always is.
I’m only human, I get discouraged like everyone else, but the difference is that I keep my wits about me and try again later, regardless of the past, regardless of what others think of my failure, regardless of “anyone’s snap judgments” . That’s the only character difference I have, really. Other than that, I’m just another human being who gets by with punches and punches.
As “bloody” as life and existence are, if you lose your mind, you really have lost everything, but if you keep your senses, you can achieve everything and anything eventually.
Writing and speaking truth to power and reality I can honestly say that happiness it is always an internal work of perception, “things”, material gains and simple “getting” does not make happiness, it is genuinely generated from within.
Reality is something that we should not resist, but at the same time, it should not run over us and knock us down. The last weakness is to lose ourselves in godliness. The ultimate strength is to be good to ourselves especially, that is, to be good to ourselves first of all in life and existence, to be the best to ourselves and heroes to ourselves to begin with. The rest will be added as we get it right within ourselves.
I remember when my dad used to say, “The best you can be is honest, it is the golden gift to give people.” My dad may not have been the most “romantic” or “show-oriented” man in the world, but at least he was right about that.
