In life, everything must come to an end. Life itself comes to an end when one dies and time to live in this world is very limited. It is also important to note that life is what it is because of both positive as well as negative events. As such, we should always be happy for everything that happens even if it is not pleasing to our hearts or eyes. Read on to learn why you should not cry because it’s over but smile because it happened.
It’s good to be optimistic
Although it is hard for you to be optimistic after losing a loved one or something your value so much, you need to focus and be determined to continue with life. You may feel like your world has crumbled, but there are many positives you can take from the occurrence of the negative event. You can look at your life and how it can be enhanced due to the event. It is important to note that a joyous life is a result of both negative and positive events. As such, you should be thankful for the event regardless of the loss, and be optimistic that things will get better.
An ending, a new beginning
Another important thing you need to know is that life is a cycle; an ending is the beginning of a new thing. As such, you should not cry that something has ended, you should focus on the beginning of a new thing. For instance, if you are in a bad relationship, once you call it off, you shouldn’t cry about it, but you should smile that it happened so that you can start a new relationship with a new partner. And you never know, things might be better than ever before. If you concentrate on crying or feeling sad that the relationship ended, you will live in darkness, and you may not find the happiness you deserve in life. It’s better to let go of the past, and focus on the new beginning.
Helps you accept reality and move on
You may lose a loved one. Yes, you will cry but that won’t bring them back. It’s the harsh reality. Sometimes people see death as a cruel thing but at times we should let some of our relatives going through hard times, especially those with terminal illnesses to rest. Besides, there are other relatives who are affected by accidents and may not get better with time. Why should we cry when they finally rest? We should smile that their suffering is over and they are in a better place. Also, we should learn in life people are born and must die at some point. As such, we should remember the good times we shared with the departed people. That helps you accept the reality and focus on moving on.
Smiling makes life more beautiful
When things are smooth and go as planned, you are always smiling and happy. You should keep that smile even when some things or events are over. Remember that smiling makex your life more beautiful and crying all the time won’t help you in any way. All you need is to wake up, put on that smile, accept what is going on and focus on the positives you can build on brought about by the negative event.
Final Words
You don t have to cry because something is over, you got to smile because it happened. This gives you positive energy to keep going and overcome the challenges brought by the negative event. That way, you will live a happier life.
