When things don't go to plan.

When things go wrong don't beat yourself up over it. I am a great believer in the 'Law of Attraction' . In some cases bad things happen because of thinking or acting negatively. If this is the case just acknowledge that you've made the wrong choice and then 'Choose Again'. This is the great thing about Gods forgiveness, he always gives us the opportunity to start over, turn things around, do it differently from now on.
I have come to believe, however, that sometimes things go wrong or bad things happen and it's not our fault, you didn't cause it, you had no control over it, it just happened to you. Spending time asking 'Why' or 'What did I do to deserve this?' is a waste of time. I remember a woman I knew at art college who was diagnosed with terminal cancer writing on a piece of her art work 'Shit Happens' and it does. It's part of this life we live in and when it does we just have to keep treading water until the difficult feelings get easier to manage. Just 'keep on keeping on' as the song says, as best you can until you get through it. Possibly one day you'll look back and the experience has made you stronger, wiser, a better person or possibly it hasn't made any positive difference, that's life.
