Sometimes we hope for what seems like a very long time. Sometimes what we hope for never comes to pass.
Other times things get worse than what we hoped and prayed for.
I don't have any answers to ease the pain for anyone, including myself when things go wrong.
But I do know that eventually with time, we begin to see things a bit differently, if we are willing to let go of bitter disappointments.
If we can let go and let God as they say, if we can give up trying so hard to make everything perfect (because the truth is, it never will be), if we can stop trying to be in control of everything, then maybe, just maybe instead of waiting for things to get better, maybe we can find a little peace and joy in the chaos.
Usually when that happens, we do find ourselves in a better place.
It is not an easy journey and it can take a very long while.
But it doesn't have to take forever for us to enjoy what we have, and even what we don't have.
None of us should wait another day to be happy.
