Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 860 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
I once read a story about two people who were stuck on a mountain. One immediately worried and started thinking, how will we get down? What will we do for food? How are we going to live? What will happen to my family? While the other immediately focus on the beauty of what was around. That person was able to look and admire, and appreciate the breadth of the amazing scenery.
This is quite interesting, isn’t it?
At times we have the opportunity to look at things and recognize the beauty, recognize the goodness. Others, beat themselves up and think of the negative aspect: what is going to happen? What will be my future? What if I die?
It’s a deep thinking that we have within ourselves. So we can focus on the positive and live a better life.
But then you ask, what about the negative? I’m not saying that you should forget the negative, ignor the challenges, or the grief that you’re living with right now; I’m not saying that. What I’m saying is that, I understand that this situation that is occurring right now “is what it is”. Make the best of it if you can, but it’s a matters of view; it’s up to you.
You can look at it as a doom and gloom day or you can look at it as an opportunity for you to grow, to change, to become better, and this possibility of experiencing the joy of being alive and appreciating what you have rather than regretting what you don’t have. Enjoy the scenery, enjoy where you’re at right now. The difficulty of our lives at times is a time constraint, something that will last only “a moment”. Look at all the possibilities of things that have happened in the past. Think of them, think of how many things actually were there at that time, and if you think about it, did it last? It didn’t.
That’s what life is all about, its experiences, a series of them, some better than others. One thing is for sure, however, is that it all passes at times. So it’s a matter of views on whether or not you will enjoy the scenery or cry about the possibilities that may not even happen. It’s all up to you.
