One of the worst things that we do to ourselves is that we get affected by all the negativity of the world and stop looking at the things that show the kind and compassionate side of people. This tendency then clouds our vision of living in a humane environment and all we feel that there is nothing good in this world. But, this is far from the truth as we have people around us who keep doing things for others and make us believe that compassion still exists. When we can deliberately look at the bright side of the world, we can do our bit of spreading positivity around and thus making the world a much better place to live.
