When I was a teenager, my mother told me that life's paths have a way of twisting and turning every 6 months. In other words, things have a way of changing and your circumstances will be different 6 months from now than they are at this moment. She was right. When bad things happen, or I feel hopeless I remember what she told me and I wait 6 months. Without fail, things always change for the better. You never know what good thing is just around the corner. Hope this helps.
