Your Way or Life's Way

As days go by and we each get older we begin to embrace life. Life is the most unpredictable thing that we know of. You aren't guaranteed tomorrow or even tonight. But You can either go about living life two ways:

1. Your way
2. Life's way

That may not make sense so I will explain. One of these is easier than the other. One of these tends to bring you the most happiest out of the two overall. That is living life the way that "life" wants you to live it. Basically, going with the flow. Sometimes things don't go your way. The person you thought was the one turned out to be a no one. Or, the person you wanted to be with only wants to be your friend. These could be blessings in disguise. So you didn't get that promotion or position you wanted and thought that you deserved. Instead of huffing and puffing, just go with it. What you didn't know was they had a better position that they were going to give you. Do you think that they would want to if you put on that kind of a show? Doubt it. So he/she only wants to be your friend. They end up with the other person. That person doesn't turn out to be who they expected them to be. Then they realize that YOU were the one always there for them when they were down and out or just needed a friend with a listening ear. Who wiped the tears off of their eyes when he/she was crying? You did. You never know when "X" happens but it could be while you are friends.

There is an infinite number of possibilities that can happen and will happen if you LET them happen. However, if you force things to happen, chances are they will not go the way you expected. And if they do, it's never the same. You may end up pushing them away forever because you just didn't accept life. Not only did you lose someone that you loved, you lost a friend as well. Not only did you not get the position, you were fired.

The experiences that I have gone through have taught me to just go with it. I like knowing what is next but sometimes it's best not to know.
