Focus on Reality!!! by Citrus

From Citrus' myspace blog

SO many people have been advizing me to focus on the POSITIVE...
That is all good folks...I believe in the power of positive thinking..
I also believe in facing reality head on these daze. I mean I spent years and years trying to think positive thoughts and hoping that it would cure the world...didn't work

...if you don't know the truth...thinking positive thoughts doesn't really help. Knowing and Facing the truth in an honest and fearless way is about as positive as I can get right now.

I am awaiting the newz that I either have or don't have a particular anti body in my blood...NOT HIV....I don't know what it's called! LOL...but IF I have it..then I have a disease...IF I don't...well then..I have just used my hands WAY TOO much.
Positive thinking will surely help me in dealing with my situation. I am POSITIVE that I will learn to deal with the situation no matter what it actually is. I have already adapted the way I do many things...However...thinking positive thoughts ALONE...is NOT gonna help.

Another note....I used to think I was bodhisatva...that I came back cuz I pretty much got the picture and need to help some other mugs see the light. But that I didn't NEED TO BE HERE. That's pretty damn positive thinking aint it? Well....in watching the suffering of my fellow humans...I have learned much much much more than I ever thought that I knew already! The suffering that I have gone thru and am facing now...will teach me even more. In turn I will be able to help more poor slobs who are dealing with what I am dealing with....so....I AM positive ok!

I guess that my real point here is that there is a big difference between positive thinking and DENIAL.

I must stand and face the truth!
Life IS about Suffering....but just check the definition of the word....
means...
1 a: to submit to or be forced to endure b: to feel keenly : labor under
2: undergo, experience
3: to put up with especially as inevitable or unavoidable
4: to allow especially by reason of indifference
intransitive verb
1: to endure death, pain, or distress
2: to sustain loss or damage
3: to be subject to disability or handicap

I really like the second one...to undergo or experience
