I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life. I can complain because I have to go to school, or I can eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge. I can cry because roses have thorns, or I can celebrate that thorns have roses.
Life is all about choices.
When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. I can choose to be in a good mood or I can choose to be in a bad mood.
