I don't worry about it...I know that "all good things must come to an end" (nothing in life is guaranteed or permanent...endings and even death are inevitable), but I don't stress about it. I just enjoy it, savor it, and treasure it for as long as life will allow and consider myself very blessed. I'll deal with the losses when the time comes, and just hope that day is long in coming.

Enjoy every moment while you can.
I don't look for them coz I know the price one has to pay for such so called temporary stuff.

I have lost everything I have 3 times
and I was crippled flat of my back close to a year
When you lose everything
and everyone you love leaves you or dies
You stop taking anything for granted
and than God for what you have
I have learned my family is my treasure on earth
Since you know God is merciful
I am expecting Him to bring them with me on that day
They also serve Him
Evey thing I have ,He gave it back to me
Including my kids who have also given me 6 grandkids
They are all that matter
If He wants me to give up everything I own again
give it away ,,He only need ask
As long as He saves my household
EVERYTHING I have is stuff I can live without
I can't live without Him ,or my Family

good things never last but bad things seems to last forever even when its not true

@Dancingxghost The second part of what you said, what does it mean?
Dancingxghost · 36-40, M
@Casheyane that not even bad thing last forever but it feels like it
maybesomeday · 31-35, F
@Dancingxghost Agree. If things are going good, it's not going to last forever so we should enjoy it while we can. But the same goes for if things are going bad, there is some relief in the fact that it too won't last forever and we just need to get through it.

Often.
Remind yourself of the things you are grateful for and that it could always be worse than it is. That should give you some perspective.

God isn't generous. I just work hard, both in life and on myself, and whatever good has come my way it's because I deserved it not because some "divine being" decided to be nice.

@maybesomeday well I have worked hard all my life ,,been on my own since I was 13 ,,
but I should also be dead ,my kid should still be crippled and so should I
when one day you look back and see ,you were blessed far more then you deserved ,,you will see things different
In a heart beat everything you think you have earned can be taken from you ,,everything ,think you have it all ,mocking who needs God ,,I earned all that you see ,,
then you turn wrong , hearing a pop ,,and the next day you can no longer walk
And as you loose everything you have worked for
and a surgeon wants $20.000.00 on top of what your insurance will pay ,,,but your crippled and you will do anything to walk again ,,,then you give credit where credit is due
Not me either ,,I said God had nothing to do with it
I earned the 20 grand that paid the surgeon ,not God
Then I over reach and I hear another pop ,,but its in my shoulder ,,next day I can't use my arm ,,a tiny sliver of bone showed me who was boss .and it wasn't me
I pray you never have to experience that
It makes you wish someone had cut your arrogant tongue out the day you was born ,,
Then you wouldn't have so much to repent for
