Optimism "InSpite Of"

          Having optimism "InSpite Of" can be very difficult at times.  Optimism is the tendency to expect the best possible outcome for any situation.  To have optimism, you must also have faith, that things will work out for your good.  To have faith, you must believe that God is on your side and wanting the best for you.  You must also want the best for you.

          We humans can become set in our ways when it comes to dealing with certain things.  What we need to do is to allow ourselves the privilege of change.  Change within ourselves allows for change around us, which allows for different outcomes to situations.  Being stuck in the same routine can produce same results.  What is needed is optimism and faith that if we change ourselves, we can change situations, therefore change outcomes.

          While writing this blog, I ran into a problem that seems to have no way out.  My initial reaction was to tell myself that I couldn't continue to write about optimism when I couldn't see a good outcome to this particular problem.  What I did instead, was to tell myself that if I change my way of thinking, something good would come from this.  Optimism is the best thing to have, along with faith in what you are doing and continue on without hesitation, because something will come to mind that will change your situation and change the way you look at things.  So my hope is that you will continue to have optimism "InSpite Of".
