Try – as much as you can – to focus on the good things.

Of course not everything in life will always be good…but sometimes it will be absolutely amazing.

And – such is life that there will be sadness, trying times and obstacles to overcome.

When someone asks how things are going – most people – the ones who love you – really want to know.

The good, the great and the terrible stuff, too.

They don’t expect you to share just the good things, they are there for you. Ready to listen and celebrate, or cheer you up. Sure, they’d prefer to be happy with you but maybe, for the time you have together, you can just be you no matter what.
