Its Okay- Reasons To Be Cheerful :)

Ever noticed how many people today have taken to being so pessimistic about things? Heres some reasons to be cheerful.

Think of this:
Somewhere, thousands and thousands of miles away, stands a single person leaning against the biggest wall ever (bigger by far than the wall of china!). This wall is indestructable, it will not fall down no matter what hits it or how hard the storms try to weather against it. There is a person standing next to this person, leaning against him. And next to him, another person leans. There is a huge line of people, billions strong, leaning against each other. And though we're all leaning sideways, its okay, because leaning though we may be we're still on our feet and not on the ground. And it anybody falls, the people next to them are on hand in seconds to pick him up. Im speaking now of the beauty of human nature, it is not all bad, the majority of people will help, and we all lean on each other to get through.

There are guardian angels out there:
Consider your friends, consider your family. Even consider those complete strangers on the street. theyre all guardian angels. Theyll watch, theyll protect, no matter how lonely you feel, someone out there will make you not lonely. The human race are not meant to be lonely, we are sociable creatures, we look to others to inform our decisions, to laugh with, to cry with, to look after each other. Even though there are huge stigmas attached to certain conditions, and even though some people lack the understanding to see past the stigmas, give them time, Theyll see eventually, stigmas can be passed over, people can learn acceptance, im sure of that no matter how impossible it might seem.

Notice the beauty
We pass over things too much. Stop! calm down, run with the world instead of running against it. Do you notice the birdsong outside your window in a morning or do you wish it would shut up? Listen to it, hear the replies from its bird family and friends up in the trees :) smile at the beauty of it. Have you ever sat and turned off every single electrical appliance in your house and listened to the rain patter against the window? Or even better, have you ever walked outside and danced in it getting drenched all the while? Have you ever sung a song so loud your lungs could burst and felt the emotion behind every note? Have you ever painted, and considered the beauty of the colours and so therefore the wonder and beauty of vision? Do you give a child a teddy or a toy to make them be quiet, when what you should be doing is getting down to their level and playing with them, and revelling in the light from their eyes and the euphoria in their smile? Next time it snows, step out without a jacket, feel the cold bite at you, let the white dominate your vision, dont search for the colours underneath, just enjoy the white, and hear the silence, the peaceful silence that comes with snow, and appreciate the cold knowing youll be warm again.

Theres good in the bad:
How do we know when we are hungry? Because we know what it feels like to be full. The same applies to how do we know that we are sad? because we know what it feels like to be happy. The expression, its better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all is very true- would you not rather be sad, knowing that you had been happy, than to have never been happy? And heres more beauty in that- theres always ways back, you can always find happiness again in something.

One last thought *Rainbows*
You might look outside and groan to see the rain. you might see it as a parrallel to youre own life, situations and predicament. But think of this, if there is sunshine behind the raindrops, we get a rainbow, and rainbows are beautiful. So if its raining in your life, take the people close to you who you know will help, they can be your rays of sunshine, and then keep an eye out, a rainbow will come soon after.

Keep smiling lovelys, theres always reasons to :D
Love, Tutti-Frutti xxxxxx
