So many things can happen in a year. Somethings can be good and other things can be not do good. We can learn to love, and we can fall out of love. Whatever happens we can always look on the positive side of things. One thing that we must always remember everything happens for a reason. Sometimes we will never know what the reason is and other times we will see the reasoning behind it. Within a year we can learn and grow so much without ever realizing it. Sometimes when we look back on the year, we think yup another year has come and gone. Do you ever reflect on the previous year?
Staying positive!
When we think this was just another year that has come and gone, we must reflect on the small things. Sometimes it can be something like spending more time with family or making a special memory. Even when we think it has been a bad year, we must still stay positive. For example, losing our favorite loved one. I know you’re thinking how we can stay positive when we feel so hurt. We must remember they would want us to be happy and they are not suffering. If they didn’t suffer, we should be thankful they didn’t have to suffer or see what bad stuff is happening in the world. Looking at everything in a positive way will mean we will have a happier life. I get it, we cannot always be happy but knowing we will be happier in the end makes things better.
Everything happens for a reason!
I know sometimes we just don’t know why something is happening until much later. Sometimes things happen and we may never know why. That is ok because either way everything happens for a reason. Sometimes its to teach us a life lesson, make us happier, or it might happen for someone else (to be happier or learn a life lesson). This is another reason we should stay positive and wait to see why it happened. Especially when something bad happens to us, there’s always a bigger plan behind it.
Reflecting on the year or the past.
Its always a good thing to reflect on the past or the past year. Its good to see how we grown, learned and what we have accomplished or failed at. Reflecting on the past can help us see why things happened the way they happen. We can learn that the bad things that happened to us were honestly for the better. For example, when my ex-wife left me and took everything (I was lucky to get some of my tools, and clothing, but she got the animals, my phone, and all of our stuff including my vehicle). At the time it was out of nowhere and I didn’t understand. When I reflect on that horrible thing that happened to me it was for the better. I realized how much my ex despised going to my side of the family and how I lost so much connection with my family. When I thought I was happy, I realized my ex spent most of our money on herself which left us broke all the time. Now I can help more people out because she never wanted to and was always holding me back. I do a lot of different types of investing. I can honestly say I am much happier without her. But being together for over 17 years I thought I was happy, and I was sad when she left and took everything. So, everything happens for a reason and there’s always a bigger plan than you will know.
Reflecting over the past year.
Reflecting over this past year I ordered a new truck and put all the options I wanted. I bought a new camping tent, and some more camping gear. I enjoyed camping this past year. I am thankful for so many different experiences. Including starting my website and blog writing. I might not be the best writer, but I enjoy it and sometimes that’s all that matters. Sometimes we must do things that makes us happy or do things we always wanted to do.
Reflecting on the past year what is the positive events that happened in your life?
