It's a problem is another deadening phrase. It's heavy and negative. It's an opportunity opens the door to growth. Each time you can see the gift in life's obstacles, you can handle difficult situations in a rewarding way. Each time you have the opportunity to stretch your capacity to handle the world, the more powerful you become.

The phrase "It's a problem" carries a weighty and negative connotation that can stifle creativity and growth. In contrast, viewing challenges as "opportunities" allows individuals to embrace potential for personal development. This shift in perspective enables one to approach life's difficulties with a more constructive mindset, recognizing that every obstacle can serve as a catalyst for improvement.

By reframing challenges as opportunities, individuals enhance their ability to cope with adversity, ultimately becoming more resilient. Each instance of tackling a problem expands one's capacity to manage life's complexities, resulting in increased inner strength and empowerment. This approach, as highlighted by Susan Jeffers in her book, promotes turning fear and indecision into positive action.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
