You Were a Positive Thinker Once
God said:
How you look at life makes a huge difference in how your life plays out. This is not a new thought. You can give Me all the reasons from here to Tuesday why you don't think this is so. Perhaps you were a positive thinker once, and your positivity got smashed. Now you call yourself realistic as if the pessimism for what passes as realism is a great thing. Predict the realistic down-side, you say, and you proudly wave the flag of the down-side.
Beloveds, what do you want to bet on? That you are doomed to mediocrity or worse, failure? There is no failing when you give life a whirl. Get away from limited thinking. Everything does not have to turn out as your heart's desire.
Look, if you want pumpernickel bread for your sandwich, and you get rye bread instead, do you have a conniption? Hey, you got bread. You got a sandwich. You don't have to make a big deal of it. Tomorrow is another day. And today is not dark because you didn't get rye bread. On the other hand, you don't want to predict that, realistically, you likely won't get what you want.
Of course, there are bigger matters in the world in which everything is a comparison and, alas, your true love turns out not to be your true love. Okay, you were mistaken. What you wanted to be true and what seemed true – wasn't true or wasn't true for long.
Are you a bigger fool to have ventured and lost (as you see it) than to have pushed away the possibility of your true love to begin with?
