A word is power, so does the attitude!

Life is just a combination of good and bad memories, which we come across every single day! Life is too short to get up everyday with your mind recalling regrets and negative thoughts of the past memories. Thus, one should always admire people who share good memories, true experiences and commendable respect! On the other hand, we shall forget the ones who gave us hard times, disrespect and hurting feelings.

Always remember that there is a reason behind everything that happens in your life! Never take anything or anyone for granted, regardless how good or bad people or situations are. Your life is a series of actions, reflecting back what you have staged on life of others most of the time. This is a non-deniable fact that we all should never forget or ignore! One has to just stay tuned to get back what s/he has done to others; the good or bad you do comes back to you in a way or another!

Consequently, it is not too bad to get a bite of someone’s upsetting word or provoking attitude; it could be a heartbreaking wake-up call of a past experience or a reminder of an old memorable moment! Sometimes, you will never know the true value of a certain incident until it becomes a scar on your memory. Life could be a tragedy when seen in close up, but a comedy in long run for it marks a drama where everyone plays a different role on its acting stage.

Your attitude towards other people is as powerful as the impact of your words; good or bad they all make an impression, which may last forever. Of course, your tongue has no bone, but it is strong enough to break someone’s heart with just a single word uttered. Different unpleasant, hurting or humiliating words or expressions might be stated in a moment of anger or disappointment for instance. Just be careful with your words and make sure you taste them before spitting them out!

Your attitude is born from your thoughts, which can out of a sudden provoke someone’s anger and break a heart. If you think of harming others, it is like throwing a knife at the sky, which eventually, will fall back on you. Likewise, when thinking of supporting others, it is like throwing sweet-smelling flower at the sky; it will drop back to adorn you! As the saying goes, “The evil you do remains with you; the good you do comes back to you”.

Both, an attitude and a word, stand as a sword of two edges, especially when reacting to an incident or a challenge by someone else. At such a particular situation, you get two options to respond back, either to take control or fold under pressure. Hence, you need to recall that it is not always about what happens to you, but sometimes it is how you face the music of what happens and keep moving forward with your life.

Life is wild and often brings unexpected surprises. People’s ill-mannered attitudes or painful words could be bad, but not the worse! Lifespan is about accepting challenges, choosing to keep moving ahead and enjoying the journey of life. Whenever you face a wall blocking your path, just knock it down and build steps to carry on. Never be discouraged, heartbroken or frustrated for there is always a light at the end of the tunnel!

Closing the door, flipping the page or moving on; regardless what you call it, all that matters is you leave the past where it belongs and make the best out of the rest of your life. Whatever you have experienced is not the end; it is just your life starting a new chapter. It is a turning point in your story where one chapter transitions into the next.
