Best Side Of Life

Life is double-sided; There's a wrong side and a right side; A sad side and a happy side.   There's a good side and a bad side; A black side and a bright side.   So if things seem dark to you, just change  your thoughts about.   Life will look quite different if you turn it  best side out..

Happiness

Happiness is wanting what you have, not having what you want. At first glance this sounds like the same thing, take a Closer look, it's not. If your completely fulfilled by spending time with Your friends and family because you really want to Be with them then you truly want what you have.   On the flip side, if you drive the nicest scar and have A huge house, and have worked hard to get those things, Then you have been successful at having what you want.   When you have what you want eventually the Feeling of satisfaction wears off.  Once you get what You want the old wants are replaced by the new wants And the cycle continues.  True happiness remains at bay.   Look around you, happiness may be closer than you Think.  It may just be a matter of changing what you Value.

JUDGE GENTLY

Pray, don't find fault with the man that limps Or stumbles along the road. Unless you have worn the shoes he wears Or struggled beneath his load.   There may be tacks in his shoes that hurt Though hidden away from view. Or the burden he bears placed on your back Might cause you to stumble too.   Don't sneer at the man who's down today Unless you have felt the blow That caused his fall or felt the shame That only the fallen know.   You may be strong but still the blows That was his if dealt to you In the selfsame way, at the selfsame time Might cause you to stagger too.     Don't be too harsh with the man that sins Or pelt him with word or stone Unless you are sure - yea, doubly sure - That you have no sins of your own.   For you know, perhaps, If the tempter's voice should whisper as soft to you As it did to him when he went astray It might cause you to falter too.
