How do you react when everything goes wrong?
Do you sing the “woe is me” song?
Choosing the way you react to pain,
Makes you vulnerable to loss or open to gain.

 

Everything that happens in your life is a chance for you to learn.
Don’t be a victim and give in to negativity at each and every turn.
Things that happen to you present a chance to grow.
Alternate choices exist, so invite them in or you’ll reap what you sow.

 

If you feel life is painful, unfair, and lonely,
You become the prisoner of that belief and that belief only.
Earth is a learning environment and for us all,
Life is not easy, it takes courage to pull yourself up after a fall.

 

But remember, everyone has a purpose for being alive,
Find it, follow it, and your life and soul will begin to thrive.
