was reading ly's blog this afternoon and i thought that it was really meaningful and so so true..

the happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way..

i can't agree with this more.. but i guess some people just don't understand it.. they just want the best or everything to go their way.. if not, they are convinced that their life is horrible and refuse to be happy.. i believe anyone out there reading this would have lived at least 10 years on this earth.. and i know, and you know, that this world isn't perfect at all and life's defintely full of ups and down.. so why can't we just accept it when things go wrong since it's all part and parcel of life..? there are many things beyond our control.. and so, why let our emotions be also controlled by the things that happen to us..? would you rather be happy or sad..? if you would rather be happy, i don't see why you should let these things bother you since it's, in a way, inevitable.. of course, i'm not saying that we cannot be upset.. man was born with emotions and feelings.. sadness is a part of us.. what i'm saying is that we shouldn't let our sadness overcome us, and hence overtake our lives..

the bible states: 'Rejoice always'. (1Thess 5:16)

and so we should.
