We often have a huge fear of the unexpected…..what if this happens?…….what if this goes wrong?……what if it goes right?…..
We worry needlessly. I’ve heard it said that most of the things that cause us the most fear never even happen.
So why do we fear the unexpected? Think about it…..how many things have happened in your life that were unexpected and looking back you are glad they happened? Something a friend did for you? An unexpected surprise from your spouse? Often time unexpected things cause us happiness not grief.
Now I’m not saying bad unexpected events never happen, they do. But we can’t live our lives holding on to what “might happen”. Embrace the unexpected, look for it, become it’s friend, and you just might find yourself a happier person for it.
