Positive outlook on life

Not really a story here just something that I learnt today: We should all have a positive outlook on life when faced with adversity. I know I know, sounds easy actually very hard. However, Elizabeth Choy, Prisoners of War during WWII had hard lives, much harder and torturous than anything we will hopefully ever have to go through. What did they do? Instead of giving up on themselves, they maintained a positive outlook of life! For example, the prisoners used sign language(they were not allowed to communicate) to encourage each other. After the war, Elizabeth Choy herself managed to forgive the Japanese soldiers and continued to help and serve others in her life. On the other hand, people who succumbed to depression, gave up on themselves etc mostly didn't survive the war. It's not just about the harsh conditions sometimes, it's more about your attitude towards the problems.

Hope this inspired you today!
