Anti-murphy's Law

Dad called this evening to tell us very good news. It was very good news. Good news indeed.

Everyday, I tell myself that the bad things that happen to me are nothing if you count the blessings that you get. Why bother and let yourself down with negativity? I say that if bad things happen to you, good things will come your way. A life of smiles and positive thinking beats an attitude of always looking out for Murphy's law. Of course it's not a bad idea to take note of all the bad things that can happen to you but let's face it, the more you search for Murphy, the more it will hunt you down.

We had this dream that we thought was about to come true. It came crashing down on us and of course we were depressed. But we didn't let it get the best of us and just move on and do the best you can with what you have. And true enough, hard work always trumps luck.

One cannot help but realize that life doesn't always work out the way you want it to be. Sometimes the life you think is ideal never was bliss in the first place. The path to true happiness comes with pain and hardships. It is then when you can truly savor your accomplishments and blessings!
