Toxic Positivity
Release Date:
Why do we insist on "Good Vibes Only?" Sure, if everyday is a good day then it seems like we'd all be so much happier, but that's just not the way the real world works. Unfortunately, every day is both good, bad, and everything in between.
When we can live our authentic selves, then we can empathize with others in a meaningful way. Rather than insisting that "everything happens for a reason," we can ask better questions about the other person and listen to their state of mind. Suffering is human and we all feel let down sometimes. Exploring that feeling helps us value the good times.
Maybe what we really need is "Vibes Only."
