I believe one's perception has a lot to do with one's life and how it goes. Waiting for something to happen or come TO you gives you all the power. The perception is that one feels one gets to judge what's "good." However, bad things can be good too. We really learn most from mistakes and, for me, it follows that bad times are learning times and I'm in this thing to learn so. . .

When I feel stuck I try to remember I believe that everyone who comes into our life each day is there for a purpose, has a "message" for us. Trying to figure out why someone shows up in my life and says/does a certain thing at a certain time more than makes me feel blessed and cared for. Works for posts too; your questioning and concerns Ohlostme have given me much food for thought today.
