Life Isn’t Meant to Be Easy

04.12.2012 by Girl on Fire // 4 Comments

I see it day in and day out.  Complaining.

Complaining about things that really are not all that bad.

Negativity.

You know what complaining and negativity gets you?  Nothing positive.  I promise you that.  The more negative you are and the more time you spend complaining, the worse your situation will become.

One thing I have learned from having a chronic illness is that you have to be positive.  There is always someone that has a problem worse than yours.  Look at it from someone else’s eyes and I am sure you will see that your problems are not so big after all.

Life isn’t meant to be easy.  You have to make your life into what you want it to be.  Complaining isn’t going to change it, only action can do that.

    You said it all in this paragraph:

    “Life isn’t meant to be easy. You have to make your life into what you want it to be. Complaining isn’t going to change it, only action can do that.”

    I agree, you have to remain positive! Have a down day every now and again because it happens but don’t wallow in it!

    So very true! Put on a smile if you can- it is better to pass that along than it is a frown!
