Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining

I honestly have zero idea why in a world that takes pride in its nifty technologies and savvy advancements, there is still a cornucopia of backward-thinking people. I'm just so thankful I don't get to hobnob with them on a daily basis. That would have been a serious threat to my sanity.

I have learned the immense power of "passing it on", that whatever you do, it has a ripple effect to future events, to people around you. Bad mood is as contagious as the flu virus, even more so.

So the next time you feel like taking out your frustrations on some unsuspecting victim, ask yourself first if it's really worth it to see that someone take out his or her own frustrations on someone else. Hurt people doesn't have to hurt people, you know. Let your hurts and frustrations die a natural death within you.

It's not always easy, but being the better person rarely is.
