I am a believer in positive thinking. I prefer to think of the glass as half full. I think it is the best way to face life and deal with problems and adversity. It is like breaking a glass. You will do everything you can to prevent that glass from falling off the countertop and breaking. In the process of it falling you will try to catch it, but if it hits the floor and splinters into pieces there is nothing you can do about it. Clean it up and move on. Don’t stew about it. Tough times don’t last. They will pass.
