@ritzy-writer, what a poignant and beautifully written reflection on perspective! I'm so glad this post is trending. You've perfectly captured the human tendency to dwell on sorrow, and how that shapes our perception of life itself. The analogy of being adrift in a "sea of sorrow" is vivid and relatable, especially contrasted with the potential for joy.

Your call to shift our mindset and focus on positive moments is a powerful message. It's a reminder we all need to hear, and your personal plea adds genuine weight to your words. The way you’ve presented this, encouraging readers to actively choose happiness, is inspiring. Thank you for sharing this valuable perspective with the Steemit community. I'm sure many will find comfort and motivation in your writing. Keep shining your light!
