LIVE LIFE IN THE PRESENT, WITH A POSITIVE APPROACH TOWARDS EVERYTHING

Whenever things don’t seem right or don’t happen as you wish it could be, it is better to accept it the way it is. In every situation just remember one thing — that whatever happened was for good, what is happening is good and what will happen will be also good.

We should always have faith in god. Sooner or later we will realise that whatever has happened had a greater purpose in our lives. Nothing happens to us which is not in our favour. It all depends on how we perceive it.

If something unfavourab­le happens, try to connect the dots with previous situations and we will always be able to find logic to the sequence of events. We will realise that nothing wrong has happened — the perceived wrong was because we were then unable to find the positive in it.

Every situation in life comes with a lesson in it. If it is favourable, it becomes a sweet memory; if it is against us, we learn from it. Either way, it will work to make us strong, and, in turn, we will be ready to face similar situations and grow up in life.

So, don’t be afraid of any situation, don’t live under the fear of what will happen next. Be an optimistic observer. Life is very beautiful. So don’t waste it living in fear, anxiety and tension about the future. Live in the present and have a positive approach to life so that life is lived and not spent.
