As we have been discussing the problems of evil in class this week, I have been seriously thinking about all the evil and good in this world that we live in. All these questions: why would God allow this (if he exists of course), where do we justify the means of evil, and other questions of that nature. It really has me thinking, how come people always focus on the negative things in life rather than positive first?
This is a serious issue. Everything is why this and why that? What about hey, let's live life, let's be thankful that we can live life today! I just don't understand why people are always so "woe-is-me," is that really necessary? People are so ungrateful these days. Yes, their are evils in the world, and yes, they are hard to understand and accept but, why all the hate and all the worry? Why can't we live everyday like it is our last, instead of always walking around questioning literally everything we do?
I don't know about you but, I'm over it. Over it meaning, why spend my life only searching for answers? To be honest, their usually isn't always a right answer when it comes to life in general, it's different for each and every one of us, and that's what makes this world so unique is that we all have different factors pushing us and making us who we are and helping us with the choices we make. I'm not saying not to question things in general, but what I am saying is that spending too much time on finding answers will, in my opinion, only lead you to not finding the answers.
Let's embrace each day! The glass is half-full, not half-empty! I don't know about you but all the pessimism just isn't cutting it for me, optimism seems much more satisfying.

I agree with just living your life. Haha I can see how you're over everything! I am starting to feel the same way, but on the other hand, I have always been the type of person to wonder about the world and why we exist and doubt things. But that's just me! So yea, i like all this thinking! It has gotten me to think about even more stuff and understand things so I like it. But yes, I do agree with you too!
Jessie. this was amazing.!
i couldnt have said it better. People are so negative in this world. I wish people would live each day grateful for everything they have. Its nice to hear someone say that because all our class has been focusing on is the negative, instead of saying wow how lucky we are to be able to live. The glass is definetly half full :]
