When I read this quote, my mind instantly goes toward Positive Thinking and Negative Thinking.
Glass half full.
Vs glass half empty.
Abundance
Vs scarcity.
Ultimately, it is a choice.
It often doesn’t feel like it, of course.
And at the moment, initially, it isn’t, I suppose.
If something happens and it stirs anger, you’ll be angry.
We’re human. Not robots.
But what happens next… It’s a choice.
Not always an easy choice.
And much easier to say than to do.
But a choice nevertheless.
If you face that sun and the bright side of life, you will leave all that negativity, darkness, and glass-half-emptiness behind you.
It will follow you, as your shadow does.
And it will try to consume you; corrupt you.
Yet it’s this that makes it a choice.
To keep looking forward, or to turn around.
The light.
Vs the dark.
