Acceptance is serenity

It's akin to walking in a room filled with various colored items and focusing only on items of a specific color. If you do so, your mind will be able to easily mask the other colors as you focus on items of that specific color. Our life is no different. When we let our minds look for problems, we see plenty of them. Instead, if we rather look away from problems and focus on possibilities and go for solutions, we will get those too.

Look at those who are inferior to you and do not look at those who are superior to you, for that is more likely to keep you away from despising God's favor on you.
If you are stricken by poverty, others are chained in debt.
If you do not have shoes,others have no feet.
If you feel pain now, others have been aching for years
so do not be sad
let all bygones be bygones
what is predestined for you, you shall see it!
Being sad will not change anything
sadness spoils your life, destroys your happiness and turns it into wretchedness
so do not be sad
See how vast is the earth
How nice are the gardens and forests
How bright are the stars
Every cloud has a silver lining
After long nights come the bright sun
Life will soon give you a smile!
so be ready to get it and do not be sad
Real life is that spent in happiness
so cross out sad days from your age
Sorrow avails not!!!

Let's therefore, use gratitude to motivate ourselves to find possibilities and solutions and not the negatives associated with problems.
