Negative to Positive

This covers a few things. Firstly, you know my What it happening to music? post, I will do a positive response to that. There are some beautiful and meaningful songs that I would like you to listen to because they not only sound different to most modern music but have meaning to them (click the Links):

Set Fire To The Rain (Adele)

The A Team (Ed Sheeran)

Nobody's Perfect (Jessie J)

Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall (Coldplay)

Better In Time (Leona Lewis)

Comment if there are any other songs I have missed out that you think should be on the list.

Secondly, most people have heard the saying "From bad to worse," but I think that things get better in time, because you learn to adapt and adjust over time. This gives the illusion that it is getting better. I find this happens quite a lot, for example, if you hear a depressing song, you could feel really upset and not be able to think about anything else, but everyday you'll find that the pain from the song fades, until eventually, you don't feel sad anymore.

Lastly, if you think about something bad for a long time, you will discover a bright side. Sometimes, this doesn't take a long time, but sometimes this will take a while. But by doing this you are being brave: Facing Facts. Facing facts is something that is better done sooner as opposed to later. This conveys one of my favourite sayings "Ignoring the facts doesn't change them," which indicates that you are better off facing facts sooner. If you refuse to admit a medical problem, chances are it will only get worse. Learn to face them. This will take enourmous amounts of strength and courage but it is a skill you have for life, a very important one.
