Reflections: The belief that good things happen

by Kenneth Hofmann

Created on: September 08, 2008   Last Updated: September 15, 2008

When we stop believing good things happen, we lose the ability to see it for real. You have got to believe and I know for a fact through my life experiences and others around me that good things do happen. It does not always necessary happen in the form of money and a celebrity status as well.

Good things can happen to you every day, it is all about your overall perception of your own reality. Some people I know are just happy to be able to wake up that particular day and that is what I mean about perception. If you have a consistent great attitude no matter what happens to you in your day the next day will be better. This is no lie and I am confident that others out there feel that same way.

Having good health is a tremendous way to create good things for yourself. It can be difficult because you are listening to someone that does enjoy the very things that are bad for us but the saying is you only live once right. In this world especially you may die and go to heaven for all the good you have done or it all could be a lie as well and you become tomorrow's fertilizer but either way you were happy and proud along the way.

If you are having trouble with believing good things happen and believe you are the most unlucky person then do things to try to change that very negative habit that makes us depressed, sad and disinterested. Change does help especially if it is for your own overall mental health. If you are in the same mood that you have had for the last twenty years and still feel you have accomplished nothing then maybe you are one that definitely needs a change.

God made you for a purpose and that is coming from someone that does read the Bible but is not a regular at church every Sunday. What I mean is even the tiniest form of faith in God or whoever you pray to can help your overall perception of yourself. When people are locked in prison for you years who do they turn to in most cases, religion. However do not let some catastrophic happening be the only reason to create more faith, start today a little by little and thank God or who you pray to for the little things and not just the good things that happen.

If you are a single mother or even a stay at home father do not think for one second you are a loser and are incapable of doing work. As long as you are not laying on the couch and eating all day and neglecting your children, you are working just not in a monetary sense. In these times more than ever children need us to help them deal with tomorrow's
