Finding Value
I like being able to recognize value in situations. It’s something that I’ve grown to accept in myself, and it’s been a challenging transition for me. I realize completely that not all situations can have value, which is sometimes hard for me to understand or realize; however, I still force myself to remember that.
I believe in coincidence and consequence. I believe that there are good reasons for situations and that we can take value out of situations, both positive and negative. We make of situations what we want or can; and this often revolves around how we feel about the situation.
We’re all confronted with situations that we don’t like, that we cringe at, but I believe we can grow from these situations and learn something new about ourselves. It’s not an easy road, but we can remain positive, and continue to seek the lesson in situations. Again, I understand that all situations aren’t valuable, but we can take value when we need it, when we seek it, and when we learn from situations.
How about you, can you share how you can take value out of a situation? Journaling is a great way, that I use.
