Day Two : Thinking About The Nice Things.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” -- Philippians 4:8 NIV

I just finished reading a novel called Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli. The novel tells a story about Stargirl, a girl with unique personality that differs from the other girls, as usual, someone different is prone for bullying. The interesting part of the story is that everyone is against Stargirl just because they cannot understand her kindness and sincerity yet Stargirl holds no grudge or hatred.

"She laughed when there was no joke. She danced when there was no music. She had no friends, yet she was the friendliest person in school."
- Stargirl, Jerry Spinelli -

To think of good things and maintaining a positive attitude is not easy when things are tough, rough and crooked. But holding all the trashes and garbage inside your mind will not bring any good anyway. Why weight your mind with the unnecessary weight and have a miserable life? Learn to let go and have peace, think of what is pure, what is true, what is noble, what is lovely and what is admirable and yhen you will see the world from a different perspective and like Stargirl, you might make an impact too.
