When the sun goes up, they say its too sunny. When the sun goes down they complain that it s so dark. Whatever the situation, no matter how good it might appear to someone else, there s always somebody who ll find something bad in it and focuses on just that. Related to this preoccupation with the negative, people like to exaggerate their problems. They get pleasure, even a sense of vitality, in making their problem seem worse than it really is.
Every negative situation has something good in it.
For example, someone loses his job and there are no other jobs available. That s a hard thing to deal with. But to focus on what s bad about it just adds hurt to an already difficult situation. It undermines the inner strength we need to face painful and threatening situations. Find something good however trivial and make a point of enjoying it.
