I’ve come to the conclusion that you can have unpleasant and sad experiences in life and still genuinely live a happy life with a positive outlook. It’s all in how you handle grief, pain, and sadness. Mind over matter.

There is a lot I do not believe in it but I guess it can work for some but not all. My personal opinion on it is that I probably will NEVER be a super positive person. But we will see by the end of it I guess.
