Well I just wanna say that this is a very well written topic. I hope that a lot of people read it and learn from it. Sometimes it's hard to see the good in some situations but the one thing I don't agree with is that there is good in every situation. I do think however that there is a lesson to be learned in every situation... I guess that can support what u said about good being in every situation though lol since you do learn something from it.
You yourself admitted that this is hard to do and I'm glad that you did that because some people may be reading this and thinking "oh she probably has it easy that's why she can write something like that" when that isn't the case. Regardless of how positive a person is about life that doesn't mean that they are constantly looking at the good in things and don't get affcted by the bad.

You just need to find out what that personal level is and make sure you prevent it from ever happening.
So, do you like this topic? If so, I have plenty more where that came from. If you can't tell, I plan to write a book on peer-leadership. ^_^

With that, while I do agree with what you (the topic starter) posted I do look at things the way Amy-May stated. Yes circumstances are different for everyone but sometimes by looking at things this way you realize that you have it a lot better than some and you're privledged with what you have. It makes you realize that you actually don't have it so bad and you should appreciate what you have.
Well I wrote too much lol so I'll stop typing now. Nice topic though.
