Optimism is a happiness magnet. If you stay positive, good things and good people will be drawn to you. Mary Lou Retton
Even when you lose all the hope, some hope always remains.
We all can hit rock bottom. It feels awful. All we can see is darkness and feel despair because it doesn’t seem like things will ever change. This is an illusion!
No matter how bad things seem, they will not remain like this forever. Anything that you are experiencing now is temporary. It will pass, and you will remain. Just because one element of your life is particularly bad right now doesn’t mean that everything in your life is equally bad, equally dark. Try to remind yourself of all the good things you have.
Who are the people around you? What are the things that matter most to you in your life? What are the good things you have? Focus on the big, and the small, the little pleasures of life and the relationships that can keep you afloat even during dark times.
Remember that your emotions will pass. There is always hope, because nothing that happens to us is permanent. Even if we experienced a long lasting change or shift, the way we feel about it will change.
