I know I'm jumping into a 163-page-long thread for the first time, and I'm kinda late to be of any great help, but I actually felt this was important enough for the interruption.
That's all we really can do. I'm not going to dive into something about fate or destiny, but life has too many unknowns. Hope for the best and plan for the worst, as they say. You can never give up on trying to steer yourself towards the things that will make you happy, but sometimes that simply won't happen. Best laid plans and all that.
And when that does, eventually, happen, I believe it's very important for our psychological health as individuals to be able to come to terms with that. With the bad things that will happen. With the fact that you couldn't have done anything to avert it. To take comfort in the knowledge that you acted to the best of your abilities, and when things didn't pan out
despite that fact, you stepped over it as a part of life. Because that's what it is. We can't get caught up in the what-ifs of the past, because we can't change them.
I fear I've gotten distracted from my original point, but I think people who see me around on the forum might agree that I have a method of nailing a point home by hammering the whole general area. What I'm trying to get at is life goes on, and it's important that we be able to take it as it comes, and deal with it when it doesn't come out in our favour, because we can't make sure everything comes out perfect. Part of that involves a resolution that people can only find in themselves, and part of that involves support that they can only get from those closest to them.
Perhaps that's what this club is all about. Being there for one another, because we understand one another? Maybe I'm 136 pages late, but that's a good idea.
