There is no doubt that so much negativity is there in the
world around all of us.
But then, there is so much positivity and goodness also
present around all of us.
In a seminar on world’s current situation, a speaker made a
comment that about half a billion people in the world are at war right now. A
woman stood up in the audience and asked “What about the rest of the seven billion
people of the world? Obviously they are not at war. Why talk so much about the
half billion negative people and not talk at all about the other seven billion
who are at peace?”
Unfortunately, most people are not able to see the
positivity and goodness in others.
Of course, negativity and terrorism should be our concern,
but talking only about the negativity around us brings us down and makes us sad
and pessimistic, while recognizing positivity and goodness in others around us
will uplift our spirit and encourage us also to be more positive and
optimistic.
Denounce negativity but at the same time, recognize and
praise the positivity and goodness also.
