Maybe I need to find a different way of being positive

Like, I can love the beauty of flowers! I just don't want to do the toxic positivity that excludes others too much and ignores their situations. I really don't. 

I would like to be more positive, but the toxic positivity thing just feels wrong to me and then it's like instead of being that, I would rather be more negative.

But then, people are sure that being negative is not the most healthy thing. So then,what is more healthy? Because the toxic positivity I see, where you have to exclude others in order to be positive, is just not feasible for me. 

It's just, it's never going to happen that I can adopt that as my way of life. I'm just not wired that way. I can't do it. 

I am sure that there's room for improvement in all areas of life, but if I am to be more positive in outlook, I know can never be like that. I just would need to find a different way of being positive that does not seem so clueless and insensitive.

Some people have basically told me things that are sort of like this: "Look, other people just aren't that sensitive to others. It's not like you have to take it personally. They're just not very sensitive people. They just don't care about other people that much. They don't mean you ill, they just are not wired to care or to have a lot of empathy."

But I do think people tend to get more sensitive and there's more sensitive people on Earth now than there were in any previous generations. 

Oh well. It's time to go to sleep. Think about something else. Think about flowers and stuff.
