Today, we dig deeper into a topic I feel strongly about—one that I was inspired to speak about due to recent events. The attacks on Paris this past week is a prime example of evil and the all-too-common negativity that is surrounding us in this world. I may not know everything about politics but what I do know is that the pain has to be so deeply rooted in someone’s soul to take that negativity to inflict pain on others.
We as humans may take the easy way out and place blame but we need to stop ourselves from taking the blame for why negative things may come our way. We immediately have a choice on how we deal with a situation. It can be so simple while going through a hardship to project that feeling onto others. The feeling that others will not know what they we are going through unless the negativity is thrown around is one that can be so common. You have the power to stop that in its tracks. You have to think in a positive way before you react or respond and stop trying to fix someone on the outside with the problems you have on the inside.
I promise you, if you go into any situation thinking that the outcome can be positive then a positive outcome will happen. Although we may not be able to defeat all of the evil in this world, we CAN bring positivity into our own lives. It all comes down to YOU, who you are and the energy that you put into this world. YOU HAVE THE POWER TO STOP THE NEGATIVITY.
