Things do not always go the way you want them
to.  What a blessing.  You are not in control.  What a gift. 
Can you be comfortable with that? 
What a test.  Welcome to being
human.  The greatest test you face is
being, and being here, and how you react to that.  There are no right or wrong answers to this
test, rather what you do with it.  If you
wish to find peace in the face of uncertainty, unpredictability, and conflict,
then learn to allow.  Allow life to
unfold with all of its uncertainties and conflict.  Flow, and bend, and observe.  The drama will always be there.  Will you fight the current or float
peacefully?  The choice is always up to
you.
