When Nothing Works Out The Way It Should

Everyone has been there. That time when what was supposed to be the best day ever turns into a bummer. And when that time comes, our first impulse is to sulk. That is just the way we are as humans. A grate majority of us are just naturally negative. I'm not saying that we are all like, "by winning the lottery we took money from someone who could have used it to buy a new car." What I mean is that we don't always look at the bright side of every situation out of sheer reflex. And in the most distressing times, the brighter side can make us want to shoot the person who pointed it out. One thing I have learned is, not just to give the brighter side a glance, but to think that there will most often be good things in the end.
For example, you are moving and you are not exited at all. People may be telling you, "Oh come on. You will make lots of new friends!" You're thinking, "zip it, buddy." I know that moving away from the thinks you have come to love is hard. But the thing is, you will come to love new things wherever you go. The brighter side may seem annoying on the dark side, but when you come out of the dark there will be new and good things.
