I Cant Change the Past But I Can Change My Future

Life Is Simple, Once You Figure Out How To Play Your Hand And Stop Wishing For Different Cards... The problem is not that we have problems..... The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems, is a problem.... Have faith that your adversities you face today were meant to get you through your adversities tomorrow.... Adversity tends to elicit talents within us that would have never surfaced had we not suffered through such hard times. If I could rid the world of all suffering, I would keep my findings to myself. Some might think it wrong of me to not relieve others of their suffering, but wouldn't I be robbing them of living? "Do not free a camel of the burden of his hump; you may be freeing him from being a camel." ~Gilbert Keith... I do not believe that anybody is dealt a hand they can't win with.... You just need to play your cards right :-)

I can see your point. Its not so much what happens that we get affected by, but the way it happens and the timing of the happenings .. I mean sometimes you just get bombarded with stuff from left, right and hardly get a chance to breathe before being knocked down again.. thats the hard part... the incessantness of it all. You get worn down and have to struggle just keeping your head above water. Im sure thats how most of us feel. It just an overwhelming "Oh no.. here it comes again" type of feeling. Im not good at being a salmon and have found its much easier to go with the flow than struggle with adversity. Im not sure about every cloud having a silver lining but will definitely keep an open mind about it.

"I do not believe that anybody is dealt a hand they can't win with.... You just need to play your cards right :-)" Oh yes. OH YES. You absolute ************* (insert any compliment you like, but it has to be awesome enough). I absolutely love that quote. And the way you constructed the story. Ace. Rated and favourited, when I feel down this will instantly make me smile :D

This is really quite deep. I was talking to my husband the other day about some trials we have been through, and we both feel like our personal abilities have been extened by them. Mind you, our physical health is feeling a bit drained too LOL But there is a silver lining to every cloud, if you learn to look for it.

So very true, and so relevant in this moment for me. Thank you for saying it.
