It would be nice if all things in this world were perfect -- but hey -- let's face it

sometimes the bad guy wins !

It's as simple as that

The thing I try to do when that happens is to learn from it -- don't dwell on the negative of it -- that's pretty obvious -- but what was life trying to teach me through this situation -- what lesson am I supposed to pass on

If I believed that this time here on earth was IT -- then I guess I wouldn't care -- but I choose to believe that everything I learn now is preparing me for so much more -- preparing me for the wonders of my next life -- or afterlife. I don't think I'm knowledgeable enough to stand in front of my maker and say let me in -- not quite yet -- I think I have a few more lessons to learn first
