Enjoy reading my thoughts during my college years. Please comment but
please be nice! Also please feel free to check out my other Blast from

Life is Pain
"Life is pain, anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to sell
you something." This is a great quote from Princess Bride. It is true,
but it is not the whole truth. Life is pain, but it is also joy, love, happiness,and beautiful moments. There is a lot of bad stuff in the
world, but there is also good. If someone only tells you the bad they
are trying to depress you. There is good in everything. It just hasn't
shown up yet, or you haven't looked for it, but it is there. God put it
there. The way that you look at life affects your whole life. If you go
around only looking for the bad then you will only find the bad. If you
go around only looking at the good you will be annoying. But if you recognize
the bad, and search for the good you will be balanced. Finding the good
in everything does not mean that you have to say that everything is
good, or that nothing is bad. It just means that there is some of both
in every situation.
Oh and one more wise little somewhat
unrelated statement. I have found that the best way to forget something
is to pretend that you forgot it until you actually do.
I think it's healthy to journal write and to reflect upon those writings years later as you are doing. I stopped by to say thanks for joining in on the booing fun!
