"STRESS ARHHH...."
Months back, I always have this unwelcome, eye-soring phrase stated in my Facebook. The first time I had this phrase posted, many people comment on it asking me what happen. The second time I posted it, less people came. Until the most recent time when I had it posted again, my friend Nat came and scolded me telling me that I'm not the only person who is stress and the phrase is releasing negative vibes to the people who are reading it. From that moment onwards, I stop posting it.
Stress is something in life that we cannot escape. Regardless of where we are or what we do, we face with stress which comes in different shapes and sizes.
When you look at the word stress, there are 2 sides to it. Regularly, you will see the comparison between stressed and desserts. Both drive you mad but one depresses you and the other makes you ask for more.
If you break up the alphabets, you may see stress as
S = Sensational
T= Thrilling
R = Rewarding
E = Excellent
S = Spectacular
S = Splendid
OR
S = Scared
T = Terrified
R = Regret
E = Empty
S = Sadness
S = Sorrow
It all depends on how you want to look at it. No matter how you look at it, the stress is still there. Here's a little something for you to figure out. Think of other words to substitute S,T,R,E,S,S. Divide them to positive and negative. Trust me, you can find more positive words than negative words. It took me less den 5 minutes to get the positive list out, but it took me half an hour to get the negative ones!
A wise person once told me, stress is divided into 2 big category; Good Stress and Bad Stress.
Good stress is the stress in life that you can see improvements in life after the stress is over. Good stress is also necessary stress in life to keep you going! For example, work stress is a good stress because for every time you stress over a deadline and when you hit it, the feelings of achievement is worth every stress you were force to put through. Another example of stress is the unconditional love that parents had for children. Parents stress up their whole life bringing up their children but when they see their children, walk, and talk and grew up, it is the most beautiful thing that can ever happen.
Bad stress is the killer. Bad stress is unnecessary. Bad stress do no good to you and yet you can't do anything to remove it. For example, you are stuck in a traffic jam that you don't even know what causes the jam. Or you are married to an idiotic husband that even after divorcing him, you still share a kid with him.
Necessary stress keep you moving forward while unnecessary stress drives you mad!
All the better that you can turn bad stress to good stress. Nobody would want bad stress to linger in their life.
In Part 2, I will discuss on types of stress we might end up with and how negativity brings about unnecessary stress.
