Unexpected events : Good or Bad?
Life doesn't always go according to plan, does it? Im dead positive most of us have had our plans ruined by e.g the weather, a friend backing out at the last minute or an unexpected event at at least one point of time in our lives. Sometimes when we least expect sth to happen, it does. The sad part? Theres nth we can do but to accept it. If only we had those damned crystals globes! However the question is... are unexpected events always bad? Or good?
Well, I have had my share of both sides actually. For example : Just recently I never expected to receive the Ms teenz connect tittle! Who knew eh? To be honest, I never saw myself as a suitable candidate for Ms Photogenic in th Miss Mongol pageant either. It was such a nice surprise! I was gleaming w immense joy and pride man. haha! Just yesterday I was definite that this customer wasn't gna pay but he did. Yay! During my one year anni, my boyfriend brought me a cake. Unforeseen? You betcha!! I actually cried cuss I was so touched. Umm, yea I sucha softie. :/
In opposition to those events above, there were some unpredictable events which didn't lead to such results. I had a friend. She was someone whom I was dead sure our bond would never weaken regardless of the distance btw us. (see Im using such strong words) But things fell apart. We parted ways. It left me w so much despair and agony. Just like that, during my Olevel exams I was expecting an A grade for my POA but to my disappointment, I only got a B. At that point of time, I literally saw all my hopes of being an accountant bid me farewell.
I read what I just typed and I am asking myself th same question I have put forward. Good or bad? I think its more along this- If the unexpected event is something positive, you tend to become twice as happy than compared to when you would've expected it. But if its something unfavorable, then you'll prolly end up 5 times as sad as when you expected it. Yes thats the ratio. Unfair, i agree. But I guess it aint thatttt bad? It's all about accepting life as it comes, w grace. Well... except for some cases who HAVE to go according to plan 24/7. Life prolly doesnt favour you. Haha!

sis i know how it feels to part ways with people we love, esp our best of friends. I also just don't know how to deal with it. It also happened with me recently. But i guess this is life. If things are meant to be, it will be. Otherwise, if not, the best we can do is to not regret it. I had read this many years ago which i still believe to this date. 'People come to our life either for a season or to stay, but both for a reason'. So don't regret. Instead try to figure out the reason and appreciate. :)
