Bad and good, what is the difference? Just how you look at the situation.

Personally I think you should not see things as good or bad, rather to just see things as they are. This enables you a lot more freedom.

If 'bad' and 'good' are not in your vocabulary that nothing 'bad' could happen indeed.
Well, it sounds to me that you don't believe in "either or" but absolutes.
I think if we ignore the bad and good concept and just look at the situation as undefined, we might be happier people and waste less energy.
I believe that without a comparison there is nothing. You wouldn't know happiness if you had nothing to compare it to, I.E. sadness etc. But I say that is an interesting perspective there.
