"One day at a time--this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering."
~Unknown
Sometimes in life we tend to feel like we are just given the worst opportunities, the worst trials, and the worst consequences. Everyday that comes seems to tear us apart, knock us down, and question who we really are.Like I have said in past post... Life isn't fair, but what can you do about it? What happened yesterday happened. What happened today happened. And whatever happens tomorrow will happen. It is just fact...
People (Including myself), always get wrapped up in the past, in our mistakes, and just won't let it go. We let the negative experiences linger on, wrapping tightly around our life. The problem with this is, yeah crap happens, but what are you going to do to make the best of what you've got. If you can't change the past, why do you keep letting it take you down instead of living today the best you can.
Life is never perfect, and never will be, but you can always take a bad situations and make something new come out of it.
Now please don't take this the wrong way. I am not saying forget, and I am not saying that in every situation there is a way to shape it into something truly amazing. Because to be honest, There are some trials out there that are just too drastic to just smile and say you're fine. In life you are allowed to cry, allowed to care. What I am saying is... just make the best can out of what you have...
"When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others."
~Peace Pilgrim
When we finally except the situation as it is, and understand there is nothing you can do to change the past, maybe then you can realize that the only way to go now... is forward. That means, making the best out of your situation, and taking your mistakes and learning how to adapt to the change.
Life isn't easy or fair, because no one is perfect. We make mistakes, we make dumb choices, but that is how we learn.
"Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment."
~Barry LePatner
Your life doesn't end after one mistake, or many at that. It doesn't end when trial after trial is thrown at you. Life doesn't end just because everything changes. The honest truth is, we just have to get back up after the fight and keep moving. The road might be different and might have a new ending, But that is the best part about life.
Life is an open ended book... everything can be looked at differently from another angle.
