You can't always be positive every single day.
In reality if you were positive all of the time, how could people really believe in the truth of your character? They couldn't.
In order to be positive you really have to understand what it's like to go through negative times. When we go through those negatives, it gives us the ability to see how much the positives really matter in our lives. To give this even more perspective, Carl Jung the famous psychologist once wrote, "The brighter the light the darker the shadow." That in itself pretty much sums all of this up.
Throughout my life and on the journey of all of this personal discovery, I have discovered what it truly means to be out in this world to help other people create lives that they can be passionate about and proud of.
For years and years I've been writing down the stories of my life and putting them out there for the world to see so maybe someone would resonate with something that I've gone through and not have to suffer through the same type of event. These stories don't always start off positive, but they can certainly end on a more lighthearted note.
I have really dark moments and days at times. In fact, the more I love with everything I have, the more I feel pain, hurt, loss, and everything else that can make your hands tremble when it comes around. I feel those things now more than I ever have before. The softening of a cold heart so many years ago has exposed it to be naked, exposed, and gives it the capability to feel everything intensely.
It's possible to find light within all of this darkness. It's possible to bring a positive outlook to your life despite many negative things going on. Are you going to always be able to stay positive? No. But you can give it your best effort and attempt to see the light in all situations.
Throughout the years, I've been taught to express these things through my art and pour myself out through my writing and I'm so lucky to have that. So if you're struggling, just know, I struggle too.
Continue going through the struggle because it will give you access to deep amounts of love.
