Living Life Hoping For The Best

We often times hear people say that someone they know has such bad luck. In hearing this, it's easy to visualize a black cloud hovering over these selected few. If this were the case, shouldn't we be living life just hoping for the best? We give ourselves too much credit in thinking that the ills of the world occurs because of us. It's true that sometimes we go through more trying times than others but this is a natural part of life. We are not being singled out more than others. It's not the number of things that can go wrong, but how we respond to these situation. Life is about learning and growing through our experiences. Granted some are worse than others, but we are who we are today because of the path we have chosen to walk. Today, celebrate your life. Athough you may question why you have to go through trying times, just know that you are becoming who you are meant to be. Your challenges will be your gift in helping others through their time of need.
We each have unique paths to walk.
Enjoy the path that you have chosen to walk...

(On a good day, I can understand this concept. But when things are falling down all around me and I'm losing control of my life, it makes me feel better to think that the universe is against me. It's a pity party for one.)
