I could be happy just about anywhere.
I know that must sound quite simple – but to me it is quite an important realization about who I am and what defines me. I believe the best in life – the best in people – the best in situations. Now its true this is not something that I always do – but I think the general belief that any place, person, experience holds value is something we take for granted.
To be positive that what you are experiencing is something valuable – now as I type and think about this statement it is not without its contradictions of false notions – you can’t tell someone that has been the survivor of a traumatic event that they should be positive about it. And I’m sure if I were made to suffer pain and violation like that of those tragedies in the world then I would have quite a different perspective.
But from where I am sitting I am fortunate to only write in the theoretical – that my experience continues to allow me the strong will to believe that there is a positive outlook to the challenges and experiences that we live through.
I could be happy anywhere I live – based on my experiences of friends and places I have been in my life – that the world is filled with interesting good people that we just need to be open to the experience of allowing into our lives. Sure there are people – that we might have a better connection with – but at the core of it – we all have value to provide to each other.
