When you count up the problems in your life, do they outweigh the good things?

not really. i think it all depends on how you see things. people should learn to forget about things that would only make their face wrinkled. people should learn how to smile despite all the troubles that come their ways. don't see the problem as the end of something, see it as a door for new possibilities. merry christmas and a happy new year to you. happy mylotting.

Problems will be there, and good things also happen. I do not really say I am beset with more problems than goodies. For one thing problems test your endurance and balance of mind; they do test the presence of mind and hone your life-skills, so I would say problems must be there
Similarly the good that happens to you also can test you in a different way- whether you have the compassion in you to share your good times or goodies with anyone else.
Further, if stop treating problems as problems and look at them as opportunities thrown at you to see how you are able to cope and make the best of what happens- treat problems as God's reward for your capabilities, then problems vanish.
Similarly when you have the good times, you are not overwhelmed but take the first opportunity to help someone in trouble or help them out of it instead of gloating over then you will have more of balance in your life.

Being realistic, the bad far outweighs the good. However, my attitude and those few blessings I do have keep me happy enough to say the good takes the title, every time! Life, even a difficult life, is soooo sweet!

Well, as of the present situation, I do not see much of a problem. It actually depends on how see things in life. If you think of something as a heavy problem then it becomes so heavy. But if you learn to control your emotions and accept that each of them are part of a test, then life becomes easier. What is important is that we should learn from what we experience so as not to make the same mistakes again.

It is more easy to count all the problems in life but it can't stop counting even you don't want to count it..... Counting goods things is just a few counts but its has more worthy and values.....
