Don't Put All Your Eggs In One Basket...

Hmmm...now I never thought I'd be telling myself that or experiencing the let down of putting all of one's eggs in one basket which basically means don't put all you have or all your energy into one thing because it will surely fail if you do and that is exactly what I think has happened to me. I won't go into details but I've experienced two non-positive things from this new week. Obviously I'm upset because I made plans and I relied upon this. I shouldn't have but I did. Hopefully all will be well. It may be but it may not. It's definitely NOT the end of the world. LOL. Either I know I will be fine but I'm feeling really let down right now. This is not about family or health or anything like that. That part of my life is great and actually more wonderful than I could ever imagine. When something happens that alters what you do in some way the importance of your family becomes even more clear. Something you lose sometimes when you are busy.

Maybe I'm overreacting. I'm sort of more stressed and less stressed at the same time. The issue of trust and relying upon something or someone is what has gotten to me. I really do think everything happens for a reason and that's what I'm sticking to for now.

I believe the same as you - everything happens for a reason.

I hope everything is okay, though.

Do worry it will get better.
Worrying does not help; rather, it makes things worst.

Not sure what is going on, but I totally understand what you are saying. Sometimes, life sucks and there isn't anything that we can do about it except put it behind us and go on. Sorry that this is a yucky moment for you.
