Staying positive during difficult times always seems to be a challenge that I face. How can I be positive if the things in my life are not going the way I planned? Maybe they were never suppose to be in the plan, perhaps there is a different plan for me. Whatever the plans for my future may be I shouldn't be scared anymore, remind yourself change is good.
If we didn't have challenges to face in life, how would we gain anything from it? Maybe we face challenges in life to make us stronger, more prepared for harder times that may arise. Or maybe it is to make us become the person that we are meant to be. I remind myself of all the hardships that I have had to overcome in my life and reflect on how during those times it felt like I was never going to get through it, but I did. There was times when I wanted to give up, it felt like it would be so much easier that way, but do you really want the easy way out? Just remember one year from now, this could be a distant memory and time heals everything, maybe not today or tomorrow but eventually. Take a look at all the things you do have that others may not have.
