Good thing in bad thing

GOOD THING IN BAD THING

       could you tell me what is the meaning of the word good thing for you? and how about bad thing?. i believe that you are always faced with these two things in your life time. people also use color to show which color is for good or bad, but i really want to know what they took to make their decision?. however, in this blog i will share my opinion about what is good thing and bad thing for me.Also, i will show you that there are good thing in bad thing.

Family is one place that i have faced with something that i called " good and bad ". sometime i did not understand with my family, sometime i fight with them ( i mean my younger brothers) and try to be winner. when these things happened i believe that no body in family feel good and this i call " bad things ". we do not talk with each other because we feel mad and think that we are not wrong. However, we still talk, play and love each other. i do not have reason why we still talk with each other. maybe because we are family. But, when that situation finished there are something we can learn with it. we talk together what we have done, we say sorry when we feel sorry. nobody right and nobody wrong, we just have reason in ourselves and we explain them to make everyone understand "why we do like that". when every things ok and we understand together, we feel happy, feel comfortable that i call " good things". all bad things happened there are lesson for everyone to learn and realize.
