We all get them, those times when life just seems to get on top of us, we feel like we are drowning or being crushed by the pressure, we scream inside, but we know nobody can hear.
For those times, here are a few observations that may help you see things from a different, and more positive, point of view …
New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings ~ Lao Tzu
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass … it’s about learning to dance in the rain ~ Anon
Good things come to those who wait … greater things come to those who will do absolutely everything to make it happen ~ Anon
Forget all the reasons why something won’t work and believe in the one reason that it will ~ Anon
Life is like photography … You need the negatives to develop ~ Anon
Don’t worry about failures … worry about the possibilities you miss when you don’t even give something a chance ~ Anon
We learn lessons from everyone who passes through our lives … some lessons are painful, some are painless … but, all are priceless ~ Anon
Nobody ever planned to be broke, fat, lazy, lonely, or stupid … those things are what happen when you don’t have a plan, make one now ~ Anon
Remember, there are millions of people out there who are more than happy with much less than you have ~ Anon
The biggest failure you can have in life is making the mistake of never trying at all ~ Anon
Life has two rules: #1 Never quit … #2 Always apply rule #1 ~ Anon
The mere act of writing this has reminded me of how positivity can come from negativity if we choose to let it happen. Take all your negative emotions, look at the situation from a different perspective and use all that energy to make a positive change.

beautiful and insightful quotes – thinking positive helps, sure – i also found that in times of great stress and hopelessness when the world appears to have come to an end if one immerses oneself in prayer asking for help ceaselessly, it begins to take overcome the stress and then finally such an earnest prayer is answered before long

Hi Indrajit, negativity breeds negativity, conversely, positivity breeds positivity and chanting Nam Myoho Renge Kyo lifts my life-state. It also allows the mind to process all the possibilities in a given situation unhindered by external influences. So as you feel your prayers are answered, I feel that the answer comes from within, and hence the result is the same. Namaste ~ Anupadin
