Jelled for Life

I have recently made the decision that life is all about perspective.  situations can be objectively good or bad, or both, for that matter.  but your perspective determines everything.  it is so hard to actually view what a situation is like from other people’s points of view that many just give up on it.  i would say that it is one of the things in life that is well worth the hard work.  even though you might not end up agreeing with them, a broader perspective is always a positive thing.  try not to judge people; they might be different or have different motivations, but that doesn’t make them inferior to you. 

i have also decided that the worst thing to do about a situation you can’t influence is to be bitter about it.  this doesn’t do anything to help fix the situation, and it definitely doesn’t do anything to broaden your perspective.  no matter how bad the situation is, it is possible to get past it.  once you get to the other side and pick up the pieces, the resulting person will be more resilient than the one who went in. 

evidently i’ve made some decisions recently.  i guess that’s not all bad.  one more thought.  logical love isn’t true love.  there should be a logical component, but if that’s all there is, perhaps you should reconsider.
