finding beauty in negative spaces

(no i'm not talkin about the seether album)

do you make the best of everything, or do you find yourself wishing couldve wouldve shouldve!?!

are you able to see good and beauty in everything you do and everywhere you go?

how do you feel about eternally negative people? the ones whose glasses are always half empty even though they're full?!

sometimes overly optimistic people annoy the shit out of me, in all honesty though I think they're onto somethin...

like attracts like, right??

 

i try to make the best of everything but sometimes the negativity surrounding me makes it hard to see anything good of a situation.

i think people who are negative all the time can be a real drag to be around. they really need to lighten up. I can't be around those kind of people for long.

the people who are always positive can be a great influence but sometimes when you're in a bad mood and everything has gone to shit, you just want to vent about it, not have someone try to cover it up with positive happy advice and such.

there should be a balance i think. but what do i know?

 

i generally try to see the good in every situation...not necessarily every person

negative people are just that, and i try to avoid them for the most part...same with people who can't keep there mouth shut abotu themselves - you know, the people who just need to praise themselves in front of everyone just to hear themselves talk - they are on the same level

 

No, I think it's a false dichotomy. A faux positive attitude is just as bad as a pessimistic one, is my feeling. I'm neither eternally pessimistic, nor eternally cheerful.

 

I'll do what odon does for this..

I try to make the best out of everything. Naturally I have some regrets, but I don't really think I "should" have done anything I didn't do, because if I had I wouldn't be where I am now. You just have to learn from your mistakes and try not to make them again.

Yes.

I feel kinda upset for them. I don't think anyone can be truly happy if they're always striving for more and always thinking that the world owes them something.

Balance is the key.

I suppose...

I don't know.

Opposites attract as well.

 

yeah, something like this.



there is absolutely nothing positive about a seether album.

 

OR the apartheid liberals that listen to them?

 

i was actually not aware that anyone listened to them. but you're probably right.

 

no

 

no i am not able to see the beauty in everything. i am sure there is beauty in everythig, becuse something that may be ugly in my eyes is probably very pleasant in the eyes of somebody else. beauty comes in all kinds of forms and shapes and sizes, so you can say there are no such things as ugly things...only things that are not for your eyes.

 

I am one of the glass half empty types.

 

my glass keeps getting bigger

 

i alot of times wish, i shouldve couldve

Yes I always look to the greener side

I am with too many negative people so I try to make them happy but honestly naturally positive people float my boat more

 

Whether or not the glass is half empty or half full, to me, depends on whether it was completely empty or completely full before it went to half.

I mean to say I try to make the most of everything but sometimes I just fail at it.

Eternally negative people have no room in my life.

 

I'm usually pretty accepting of things and situations.

 

we create our own realities - in a way, we choose to be where we are at any given time....if in a shitty situation, we have to change our vibrational state and awareness to something higher or it will only drag us down to the lowest common denominator

although i love to wallow in my miseries at times, i have to see the glass as half full - it's the only way to come out of it, no one can do it for us

 

I don't see beauty in the Holocaust or things like pariahdom, slavery and torture. But I'll keep an open mind...

 

i'm petty bitter about life

but i'm really good at faking

 

That's why I started making everything myself when I moved here and refinishing all teh beautiful antiques I found in the area that had been wronged by these people.
I needed bright stuff, to undo the rural Nevadaness out of mod century california modern dining chairs, to bake everything from scratch so I didn't become 200 pounds from processed food. It's been so hard to unNevadacize my life while living in nevada.
The thing is though, the iinters. Are you going to be there this winter?
