Question of Day: How do you deal with bumps in road during your journey to happiness?

[robertcgage]

To know no matter how deep the valley sorrow, The peek of happiness is just in front of me.

[jimfromtexas5]

First off; thanks for all of the Island scenery you so thoughtfully try to include in you videos - nicely done.

I deal with my bumps in the road with sincere thought at an opportunity to learn. You see; that is where the lessons of this life are to be realized. Smooth sailing straight to happiness offers no chance for learning at all. Its in learning how to deal with the bump that you learn how to truly live life and that will lead straight to happiness.

Ja,

Jim

You're welcome - thanks for appreciating the efforts. Not always ideal lighting, but I try.

True dat. When the bumps last too long - like too close for comfort, it gets tough to want to "learn" and easier to get discouraged. How do you "hang in there" when it seems things are just not letting up?

[jimfromtexas5]

When the bumps last too long how do you hang in there? These questions have touched the core of my life at the moment.

With the state of my life I face this question every day. At times discouragement has cracked open my optimistic approach to life; leaving me barren and unwilling to take another step.

But there is a voice inside us all. A voice one needs to listens too for true happiness. So in times of emotions discordance I try to block everything and just listen to that voice.

Some call that praying... I call it talking to my angels.

[tracitoguchiinc]

[DecimicCimiced]

If I encounter a bump in the road, I will just think about the positive things that could happen, and that makes me happy.

[tracitoguchiinc]

Mmm... focusing on the positive... thanks for the reminder ~

I think if you know what your going after nothing can stand in your way!!But if you do run into some bumps in the road,your happiness will be that much sweeter when you get past it and complete your journey!That's how i look at it.

[tracitoguchiinc]

Yes, the getting past it part is the kicker ;)

[ninikb]

Hi Traci. I tend to focus on what I want in life rather than what I don't want in life, and that's what helps me reach my goals and happiness. Even if its a bumpy road, you gain experience and l\earn from it on the way. It usually makes you a better, more confident person - it has with me anyway. Speak soon - N

[tracitoguchiinc]

Mmm, yes... focusing on the goal. That always helps me in bowling! Seriously :) Thank you for the reminder. I need to move that from the bowling alley to bigger things like my life ;) Mahalo
