I know, we all wish we could go through life without trials, but it is those trials that transform people in beautiful, strong, and wise human beings. To become extraordinary we need those trials. They teach us what life is really about and they help us understand how to get through future hardships. They can either turn you into an old bitter person that hates everything and everyone or they can turn you into something even more beautiful and magnificent. I don't know about you, but I don't want to leave this world being bitter. I don't want people to remember me as someone who hated life and everything in it. I want people to remember me for showing an inner happiness and joy and remember me as someone who loved life and all the people in it. Which would you prefer? If you want a miserable life, then go ahead and let those trials beat you down to nothing. However, if you want to be remembered as a beautiful and joyful person, let those trials help and guide you. Let them teach you about life and people. Let them open your eyes to a world that was once closed to you. When hardships come, don't sit in the corner and wallow in self-pity. Stand up and face them head on with a smile on your face. When people ask why you are smiling, simply tell them, "Because I know I will come out better in the end!" I know it will not be easy to do all the time, but having an optimistic attitude can move mountains. Face the world and when it tries knocking you down, look at it, smile, and say, "I won't let you bring me down! I will fight through this and come out better in the end!"
