Beauty Inside the Shadow
As we go through life, we find ourselves many times crossing some shadows, sometimes they are scary, sometimes they are not, but we often see them as something that we do not want to enter. Is it fine to try to avoid them? Is it fine to be afraid of them?
Life will always be a mixture of light and shadow, of happiness and sadness, but it is this mixture that makes us who we are. We should not fear the shadow, we might even find some beauty inside of it.
Look at this picture for example. There is a rainbow that we can see on the shadows due to the light interacting with the water. In the same way we can find something positive on our shadows if we let our light, our family and friends, become our support.
If you ever find yourself in a situation that looks dark, looks for the rainbow inside of it, look for the positive on it. It is not an easy thing to do, and it takes a lot of work to get to this level, but it is worth it. If we can see the beauty inside the shadow, we will be able to overcome adversity with a better attitude, which in turn will reduce our stress.
Work on your thinking and make it to a point where thinking positive is automatic, where looking for a rainbow in any situation is part of who you are. Never give up and continue moving forward with everything you got.
God’s Love
Lord in my darkest time you are my flickering light
Lord in my despairing moments you are my hope
When my knees are weary and weak you send your angles to lift me up
In times of despondent and loneliness you send your Holy Spirit to give me life once more.
When I run out of ideas, you send many
When I complain of overwhelming problems you pointed me to your cross
When the battle is hard and knowing I am lost, you send your soldiers to fight with me
When laughter seems far off
You shine your face upon me
When I feel I am unloved you reminded me that your love is greater and unending
Reminding me always that your awesome love is shown as you die on the cross.
You save us and you want us to be victorious in our adversities.
There should NOT be complaining, but thankfulness of what wonderful Lord you are.

Happiness
What is happiness? How do we find it? These are questions that eventually during our life will make it to our heads. How do we answer them? Are we going to be positive or pessimistic? Are we going to be excited thinking about it, or are we going to frown at that moment?
How can we be happy? Every person will give you a different answer. Some will say that they are happy with the family, some that going to a concert brings it to them, and some will tell you their favorite food is enough to make them happy.
Does this mean that there is a right and wrong answer? Not really, happiness depends on the individual person, but there is one variable that will always be present, and that is as positive thinking at that moment and for that action. If you do not have positive thinking, then you cannot be genuinely happy.
Our minds are incredibly powerful, they can control how we react and how we feel. Therefore, it is imperative to be positive and not negative. Negative thinking will always bring negative results. What is in your mind will always surface, be it positive or negative.
Always strive to find the good in anything that you do or that happens to you. By finding the good you will be able to control your negative feelings and you will be one step closer to be genuinely happy. Do not react to what happens to you, learn to control your feelings, and find the best possible way to move trough that moment in your life.
You are not alone; you are not an island in the middle of the sea. Find a connection with your family and with your friends; these are other keys to find that internal happiness that we all desire.
You are responsible for your own happiness, you either will let the environment control you or you will learn to navigate through it without being controlled by it. Find the positive in everything that you do, become happy one step a time, and once you do, share it with the ones that surround you. Create a positive circle, not a negative one. Be a happy and always move forward.
