People who always think in bad sides only can think about difficulties even in a good thing and even they have good chances, they would feel uncertainty about the opportunities. In contrast pessimist, people who can think in a positive way can find many opportunities from a hardship.
I am not sure does this quote apply in my life or not, but I am an opportunities. One time, two of my friends and I took a trip in Thailand and none of us could speak in Thai. We got lost in the countryside. There were no one can speak Chinese or even English. Both of my friends were very worried about how to get back to the hotel, and afraid to meet bad people. Then, I said no matter where is it we are still alive. Until now, I still think what I said was very true. At that time, we still had each other; we still could see the sun. There was nothing we need to panic. I said that worries cannot help us finding the way to go back. To comfort my friends, I suggested that we could look around the village for fun and after we felt better, then we could start looking the way to go back. After awhile, we didn’t feel worried anymore. We took several hours walking around the village and spent five hours to get back hour hotel. Although, we got lost, we still had fun when we were looking the way to go back. I was thinking since we had been there, why didn’t we just enjoy it. I told this story to my family and friends. They all said it was too danger, and we were just lucky. As they said, maybe we were just lucky. But, maybe it is because we thought in a positive way and the opportunity just came to us.
People who know me well always said I am crazy and silly. I mean just a little bit.
If I was in that situation, I would be panic. :( It's nice that you had a cool mind even when you got lost.
