Bad things happen.
Sometimes, to us personally.
Accidents.
Injustices.
Lost opportunities.
Sometimes, on a larger scale.
Wars.
Pandemics.
Disasters.
Sometimes, we’re at fault.
We’ve miscalculated risk.
We’ve overlooked details.
We’ve ignored warnings.
Other times, we’re totally faultless.
We’ve played no role in the circumstances we face.
It’s a fact of life that bad things happen.
That we won’t always have things go our way.
That we’ll experience and see things that upset us.
Things that break our hearts.
Things that anger us.
Things that frustrate us.
We’ve got no choice.
What we can do is take a realistic look at our options.
Assess what we can and cannot do about it.
Then decide whether to do it.
Life will not always be easy.
You'll face adversity and challenges.
What are you going to do about it?
If there's something you can do, do it.
If there's not, change your internal state.
Your thoughts.
Your feelings.
Your attitude.
You can always affect those.
You are worthy of a most excellent life.
That may not look how you want it to externally.
How it looks internally is up to you.
Do what you can.
You’ve got this.
