.-.Eventually in everyones life there will always be a downside no matter how great life seems to be going for you. You'll have at least one heartbreak, wheather it be from a lover,a friend, a family, someone you dont know...but there's always a brighter side to everything...look at the possibilities......-.
Someone close to you passes away
The dark side to that is, you'll never see them again, and they're never comming back no matter how much you want them to.
The bright side to that is, they're happy where they are, they're no longer suffering or endangered. They'll be with you forever, although you can't see them they're still there. It's kindda how the wind works, you cant see it but you feel it, you know its there. It's as simple as that.
The one person you shared everything with once, that you cared the world for them, they cared the world for you, you dated for a long time, and they want to take a break apart from each other, but only come to find out they get tired of you
The dark side to that is, they lost intrest in you, you're left with all the memories that once made you so happy, but in the end left you wtih so much pain and the worse feeling in the world, and all you want to do is cry. Believe me I've been there and I'm in the process of waiting for the one person I love more than anything in the world to come back to me. It hurts to think back on everything he said to me like "I love you baby" and all the times he would call me, and I miss hugging up to him...those times are gone..
The bright side to this is they once did care about you, and its good that you got your heart broken into a million pieces, it will only make you stronger for the next thing you face in life. You do have memories and when you do get lost or forget the reason why you love them or care for them at all, you have memories to look back on and help you come to a decision and you find your way once again. Always remember they have memories too, you're not the only one, if it was a relationship where you both had somethin special going on in your life, and you shared alot of great times together, the memories will remain in their mind forever, and its possible one day they will come back to you.
You lost your best friend
The Dark Side is wheather you get into an argument with your best friend, your friend betrays you and leaves you for somethin else or someone else, you're friend has a dramatic change in life and they leave you, you have no one you can trust anymore like you did your best friend. The person you talked to the most, shared the most stuff with is now gone and for whatever reason dosent want you anymore. You have no one to talk to when you get dumped or have a decision you cant make on your own. When your world is tore upside down who do you have to goto now you lost your best friend?
The Bright Side is, if they were your true best friend, they'll come back to you. Believe me you'll know who your best friends are...if you and your best friend get into an argument chances are youll be friends in a week or less. All you have to do is apologize or talk about the things that have made your best friend leave you. Believe me there is no dark side really to loosin a best friend... friends will leave you and you will either make up with them or forget about em, best friends will leave you and come back unconditionally....always remember that.
Your parents are abusive and your family fights
The Dark side to this is, your family has problems, your family isnt loving at all if they beat you. They love you but they dont show they're love in a loving way. Hitting a person is no way to express anger. This will lead to depression eventually and may even cause death. This is a definate problem your parents have, and you may have problems too.
The Bright side to this is, you can get help all you have to do is goto the police or call an abuse hotline. If you do not know the number to an abuse hotline, simply call your operator pressing 0, or you can look in the phonebooks for a nearby counsleing or child abuse place. If you think there is no way out and you are unable to get help, your best bet is to pray to god. I promise he is there and willing to listen to you any time of the day unconditionally. Always remember you are not alone.
You're just basically depressed from life itself
The Dark side to this is you have no good outlook on anything in life period. There is no brighter side in your eyes to any problem, and there is definatley no solution. You feel like nobody cares, you feel worthless and you really dont feel like you have anyone there....and you feel like giving up in all. The only way out may possibly be to take your own life since you feel its not worth living
The Bright side to this is you can get help. and there is a brighter side to everything, if you've been paying attention to these emails instead of just reading them, and actually letting things sink into your mind, there is a solution for everything.....wheater it be death,relationships,friendships,family matters,life alternating changes etc....you may not realize there is only so many options available to you..but believe me you will later on.
Something Ive learned about everything.....
In relationships.....be happy who you are with,appretiate what you got, give everything a chance, always be willing to try something new, if you are in love show it and i dont mean by having sex, that is okay but i mean be kind,patient,generous, caring. If you're in love you'll know it. There is no real definition of love. Everybody has their own. The only real proof I've ever seen of true love would be when God sent his only son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins because he loves us so much. And im not sayin to go stick someone you care about on a cross and let them die just to prove to someone else you love them...Im just using an example of true love. If the person wants to take a break away from you do not get depressed before during or after the relationship, it only drives them away, dont beg for them back that only makes you look needy, dont be clingy and dont act like you're their parent or you control them. You're their boyfriend/girlfriend and you are still young, act as if any couple would, spend 50 percent time with them and 50 percent time with your friends.
In Friendships..........treat them as you want to be treated, give them respect, kindness, and dont back stab them. Basically all I'm sayin here is, treat them as you want them to treat you. Believe me this is the real world...treat everyone as u want to be treated....Im sure you learned that in the 1st grade but its true and its the most helpful advice you'll ever get. If you're rude to someone or hateful you're gonna get it back to you twice as hard.
In Family Matters........Remember you're parents love you no matter what they may say or do. They could beat you to death and Im sure they love you, they just have problems and need help. Always appretiate your mother and father, they're the one that gave you life.....if it wasnt for them you wouldnt be here goin through life right now. Life is the best gift you can have.
For yourself...........Dont ever try to hurt yourself, dont ever think you're not worthy or useless. You're just as good as anyone else, no matter if you're not the best lookin person, or not so wealthy. Treat yourself as you want to be treated. Think of other people before yourself. There is very few exceptions to that matter, and always think before you speak, or think before you act. Actions speak louder than words, and Words are more harmful than actions. But always remember respect yourself, and everyone around you, treat everyone as you want to be treated, be kind but know when to put your foot down or else you'll get walked all over.
Here are some songs that are helpful to you...to help you get over stuff and through life
Concrete Angel-Martina McBride,Beautiful-Christina Aguleria,Alive-Jenifer Lopez,Fighter-Christina Aguleria,Through The Rain-Mariah Carey
Here is some stuff to always remember..
God wouldnt put anything on you that was more than you could handle, so anything horrible you go through remember you can handle it and get through it, or else God wouldnt watch you suffer.
Everything is okay in the end, if its not okay than its not the end
The end of something is always the beginning of something new
LIfe is too short to be sad and upset over, if something pushes you down get right back up, unconditionally.
And always remember you go through at least 1 persons mind a day, there is always someone thinking of you
