Why me?

Life is full of joy but also setbacks or disappointments. When they occur, we often ask ourselves, “Why me.” We may spend endless time pondering on why we did not receive that deserved promotion, why our relationship ended in a divorce, why we received a notice of job layoff, and why we lost our entire savings on risky investments. Worrying events that have already happened is futile, heart trenching, and hinder to our happiness. Remember that there is always a light at the end of the tunnel regardless how dire the situation it may seem. Even though there aren’t too many things we can control, we do however can control our feeling or attitude to overcome adversities and view them as opportunities to reflect or make corrections and open the true potential of the next stage of our life. In short, pick ourselves up and move on!
