The importance of optimism

There are lots of moments in life when we are taught of the important lessons of life. We should not give up hopes and must look forward to fight the tough situations in life with courage. This would ultimately help in attaining the wisdom and lead us towards something great in life.

The lessons of optimism are very important in life. They hold a lot of significance in life. There are so many reasons which teach us that positive thoughts in life take us to new heights and wisdom.. Life is a great blessing and we must live it peacefully and blissfully.

There have been several instances in life when optimism has come to play a great role in my life. I would love to narrate one of them that inspired me to look up in life with positive attitude even in the tough and difficult phases of life. It is important or everyone to learn these lessons as this makes life seem easy, comfortable and colourful. In this way the tough situations in life fade away and great moments begin to flourish after the testing moments.

The story that I am going to narrate is from my teenage days. I was 13 years old when my father was separated from his brothers and did not have a penny to have his next meal served. Though I did not understand much but I could see the fears and tears in my parents eyes. They were worried of how the things would go on now and how they would make things better for everyone in the family.

My mother gave her gold bangles to my father to sell them off and get the money to feed us. My father was reluctant to put my mother's jewellery on stake and instead decided to go out for work and earn the living. We had never seen and witnessed such situation, but this is life where you never know what you might get to face. 

I decided to go along with my father. After lot of insisting, he agreed to take me along. I had never seen him work so hard as earlier the grandfather's business was well established and it was being run by my dad and his siblings. The time was too tough for my father. Life was testing him quite immensely.

On our way back, my father initiated a conversation and he asked me to be strong and not to be affected by all such situations as these are the testing times and told to be optimistic and hopeful about life in all the situations. We should not give up on our principles, hopes and desires. Enough amount of efforts must be put in order to face the obstacles and stand tall in life.

That was one day, that made me to grow in my heads and helped in learning an important lesson of life. I decided to be positive all the time. May be that time I might not have understood much, but that was a life changing day as I began to observe and learn things differently from that day on.
