What made Snow White fairest in all the land? She determined being happy, facing her trials, and looking at her life optimistically: basically, she was good.
The best way to live life is with happiness, courage and optimism. (I ignore the lie that says happiness is childish.) Everyone is free to live their life however they do but cynical ideas or comments about living life positively don’t help.
Negativity is a lie: The truth is happiness, courage, optimism and all good things. It’s not a matter of ignoring “reality”, “looking at life with rose colored glasses”, or “sticking my head in the sand” but of selecting what’s in my life.
Just because some people surround themselves with negativity doesn’t mean I do; their reality isn’t mine and I don’t ignore my reality but decide what it contains. There’s nothing wrong with looking at life optimistically (“with rose colored glasses”) and focusing on goodness, after all “What you focus on is what you get.” I embrace truth not avoid it, and I face challenges and obstacles not run from them because I know that triumph makes me stronger (and I always win.)
I stare down bullies with logic and won’t be intimidated. Like I said, everyone is free to live their life however they do and I live my life with the goal of being fairest in all the land.
