First of all, this is a well written piece. Kudos for that.
I do have question though:
You say that everyone needs clarity to see the things as they are, yet you also say we should feed ourselves with positive affirmations. Isn't that a contradiction?
Firstly, thank you!
Secondly, perhaps. It is only a contradiction if you believe it to be. I don't see the connection myself. If things aren't positive, there's nothing wrong with affirming yourself that things can be better. That is too a positive affirmation. The affirmations, in my eyes and use, are merely tools to allow yourself to not be strayed by negativity and things that don't go your way.
