What a wonderful, positive article. I have often observed to others who complained about how bad life was that it was their own fault for not being happy. I suggest to them that they spend to much time worrying about the things they don't have and not enough time enjoying the good things they do have. Having the right attitude sure helps.

I think the key to staying positive is to always be aware of your thoughts. When you repeatedly tell yourself how hopeless things are, your brain believes it. When you remind yourself that the Lord loves you, and will enable you to face challenges with courage and faith, you feel greater peace and hope. We all need to practice holding positive "faith thoughts" in our minds and hearts. That is one of the reasons we are counselled to read our scriptures. We must constantly let the light into our minds and hearts.
