[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with most posters who say to try to focus on the positive. Although, if you are not the one who has to endure hardship, you shouldn’t be judging the feelings of those who do. But, this is a tale old as time. Did you know that in many cultures they have an expression that says something along the lines “it is not meant to be”. So, if someone has bad luck that is not clearly their fault then “it is not meant to be”. I know many people who grew up surrounded by that mentality where you are just not supposed to swim upstream and fight adversity. I actually think that with each new generation, we are getting better and better at this. I also think that simply being sympathetic and supportive to keep looking for better options is the way to go. Saying that someone’s “bad luck” is multiplying due to their own negativity might be true in some cases, but saying this is not helpful. [/quote] What a thoughtful and reasonable post! Thank you.[/quote]
