Life is like a sunflower-it will blossom, if faced towards the sun shine, and fade away if does not face the sun shine, the brightness, the positivity.I have come to realise in my short span of about 26 years, that no matter how much u try to ensure that u r happy, share happiness, have fun, frolic and just chill out, life keeps throwing unpleasant and challenging situations in your way, which u have to keep surpassing.

"When life throws limes at me, I make a lemonade of it" is my favourite one-liner, I read in a book.Well, honestly, I cant always be so goody, always 'chin-up' types and positive!Cmon, I get damn frustrated, upset and disturbed, if I face situations which are way beyond my control, and I cant do much about it.But then, does this help?how?Well, unfortunately no.Whatever troubles we have, its always a matter of our choice-our response to what they do to us!

Stephen covey has very aptly put this- 'Its not what others do to us that hurts us, in the most fundamental sense, its our chosen response to what they do to us, that hurts us' How very true!It all boils down to just this-how do u choose to react to your troubles or problems?It is here that the positivity, the ability to see brighter side of life comes to our rescue.This trait helps us feel good even about the worst situations we face.Thus now I know the purpose of those n number of motivational, inspirational books and articles-its all about positive frame of mind!

Anyway, life still goes on, either smoothly or with bumps..While I struggle with my own attitude and tantrums, I realise my happiness is in my own hands!!This is the way to go!!
