You Get What You Get, and You Don’t Get Upset

I’ve said this time and time again but it’s always good to remind yourself once in a while.

We can’t choose the cards we’re dealt. If God has decided that an incident (good or bad) is to come, no amount of karma tissues can prevent or induce it.

Being the greedy and self-serving creatures that we are, we only want good things coming our way. After we get it, we forget it almost immediately. If the reverse happens, you end up whining and bitching about it for days.

Maybe all I need is to be reminded of how small I am. How small my problems are. How insignificant is a few pimples and a fat body compared to the bigger picture.

Maybe I just need to finally learn how to be totally comfortable in my skin and with who I am.
