The upshot of this perspective is that your suffering would vanish if only you adopted a more evolved perspective and stopped feeling aggrieved.

You also chose how you interpret what happened-as if there are no interpersonal facts, only interpretations. Not only have you chosen the event, no matter how horrible, for your personal growth. In New Age crowds here on the West Coast, where your attitude is considered the sole determinant of the impact an event has on you, it gets even worse.In these New Thought circles, no matter what happens to you, it is assumed that you have created your own reality. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.We live in a culture that is blind to betrayal and intolerant of emotional pain. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soulmate. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth.
