What is with my life. Whenever I have these amazing high points something always comes along to knock me back down. Last semester I went to Ireland only to find out my dad has Leukemia two months later. Monday night was the best concert that I've ever been to... and today I got it sprung on me that one of my best friends from home is being

omg Megan, I totally sympathize, I've realized time and again that happens a lot. God forbid life gets too happy for us, you know? Its how you react to those bad times that makes you the person you are, life is what you make it. If you can get through the bad times, looking forward to the good, with your head up high, you'll be ok, because you'll be rewarded with good times. Just try to focus on the good, and remember you could always be worse off, hard as life is... I actually got an interesting email about this from my mom last night, she knows what I've been going through. Though I'm not so sure I believe in God, I think it makes a good point - you just gotta take life as it comes.

This is God. Today I will be handling All of your problems for you. I do Not need your help. So, have a nice day.
I love you.
P.S. And, remember...
If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do Not attempt to resolve it yourself! Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. I will get to it in MY TIME. All situations will be resolved, but in My time, not yours.
Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic, don't despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
Should you have a bad day at work; think of the man who has been out of work for years.
Should you despair over a relationship gone bad; think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return.
Should you grieve the passing of another weekend; think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.
Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance; think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.
Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, asking what is my purpose? Be thankful. There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.
Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities; remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them!
Should you decide to send this to a friend; Thank you. You may have touched their life in ways you will never know!
Now, you have a nice day... God
God has seen you struggling,
God says it's over.
A blessing is coming your way.
