does not blow good in the end." Paul says, "Overcome evil with good." Did you ever think of overcoming bad news with good? that is, by just seeing it as good news from the start--surprising good news sometimes, of course, but nevertheless good. You will be astonished how suddenly and surely all bad news will be transformed into good news when you are determined to see it that way.
Some one has said that we should look upon every event in life as a "heavenly messenger" sent direct to us to show us the way to go or what to do to realize our heart's desires. That is one of the wisest and best of all sayings. Calling these messenger's or messages "good 'bad' news" is just a way of making the idea arresting, thought provoking, memorable. It doesn't matter what we call news, if we see it as good. No matter what the news is, if the weather mall says rain, if the letter that we looked for does not come, if the decision is against our hopes, if the bank fails, if the doctor shakes his head, just stop, look, and listen, and the real meaning of it will show itself. "Bad" news? What shall I do about it? Get still and think about it quietly! Intuition and inspiration will surely throw light upon it that will transform its whole appearance, that will open it up in beauty as the sun opens a flower.
