Simple Advice

The strong often tell us to keep the faith when things do not go our way. It is their strength of character that brings forth the promise that dark clouds will eventually part to reveal a clear sky. The optimist in all of us ought to steadfastly hold on to this positive attitude. Sometimes however, we fall by the wayside when uncertainty continues to brew with no resolution in sight.

 

The roller coaster that is life can certainly bring with it times of emotional upheaval. And when situations are such that they are beyond our control, it takes an even greater effort to remain positive. Sure, we may allow ourselves to wallow in self pity for a bit. Then, we pick ourselves up, take small steps and move forward as faith slowly returns as an ally we count on.

 

To maintain a happy disposition and take one day at a time. A friend said this to me today. It could not have come at a more opportune time. When one's mind is clouded and in need of some clarity, a simple piece of advice from a kindred spirit acts not only as a pick-me-up, but also as a means to lift one's sentiment with the hope of better things to come.
