Good and Bad in Everything

So far in every event that holds some weight on my life, no matter how little, there is one sure thing that I have found in common. There is good and bad involved in everything. Yes some things have much more bad than good or the other way around, but there is bad and good in it all. Sometimes it is extremely difficult or almost impossible to find; so close to impossible in fact that you may not care enough to find it.
The most recent, large example that i have is of the whole situation of my mom having cancer. She has fought through and will survive which is obviously good, but that doesn't count as the good in this because that only occurs because of the bad: having her life threatened by a scary, deadly disease. So you say, if that doesn't count then there isn't good is there? This is where my theory falls apart right? Wrong. This has changed my life, and in a good way. I have come to appreciate the fact that my mom could be at Thanksgiving dinner, that she was there opening presents with us a short time ago, and that everyday she is there like she is now. This is a damn good positive i would say. That through all this terrible shit I have come to learn how important the people who are close to you are. I will never again have a lack of appreciation for my mom and hopefully not for others either.
To find good in a situation like that is enough to prove to me that there is good in everything, no matter how bad it may seem. I could give you a ton of examples of finding the hard to find good or bad but I doubt you wanna sit here all day reading this. And there are two reasons I didn't give an example of trying to find the bad in stuff. One is that sometimes looking for bad just isn't smart. Just stay happy, why find the bad? I just do it because I can't help it sometimes which leads me to my second reason. It's is much easier to find the bad in stuff than it is the good; it is just human nature to find the bad and dwell on that (which leads to the topic which will be in my next blog). If you still don't believe there is good and bad in everything then I want you to really sit down and think about your experiences and find both. I guarantee you that you will find them and when you do you'll know I am right. There is good and bad in everything.
