Negative or Positive?  Sometimes you must give.
The Antelope dies so the Lion may live.

SUMMARY:

Every event can be viewed as a positive and a negative occurance. It is your perspective that determines which you see it as. Life is all in how you look at it.

LECTURE:

When a lion kills an antelope so that the lion may continue to live, is it that a positive thing or a negative thing? The answer usually depends on whether you ask the lion or the antelope.

People tend to see things as being either Positive or Negative. Good or Bad. Based on how it affects themselves personally.

The fact is that everything that happens has both positive and negative effects, depending on your perspective. Most people only view things from their own perspective. Strive to develop the ability to see things from a perspective other than your own, and notice how the positive and negative aspects change.

When you break things down into their most fundamental aspects, there is no positive or negative. It is all just pure perspective.

It has been said the we are the Universe seeking to experience itself. Your life is one of the Universe's perspectives..

 

LAB:

What is the best thing that has ever happened to you? What negatives things happened because of it, either to yourself or to others? Does that make it less "good" for you or more "bad" for the others?

What is the worst thing that has ever happened to you? What positives came of it in your life? What positives came out of it in the lives of others?
