Sometimes things don't make sense

Life is not always easy. Sometimes, things don't make sense. We may experience setbacks, disappointments, and even tragedies.

When these things happen, it can be easy to get discouraged and give up. But it is imperative to remember that sometimes things don't make sense because they are not meant to. So if you're feeling discouraged, just remember: life is a box of chocolates, and sometimes you get the gross, hard-to-chew ones.

There are many things in life we cannot influence. We cannot control the weather, the stock market, or others' actions. But we can control our own thoughts and actions. Sonja Lyubomirsky, a professor of psychology, claims that 40% of happiness is within our control.

When things don't make sense, it is critical to concentrate on what we can control. We can put our attention on our own growth and development. We can focus on our relationships with others. And we can focus on our goals and dreams.

It is also important to remember that not everything that happens to us is bad. Sometimes, the things that don't make sense teach us the most. They teach us about ourselves, the world, and what is truly significant. Helen Keller said "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it." in her speech to the American Association to Promote the Teaching of Speech to the Deaf on July 8, 1896.

So next time something doesn't make sense, don't get discouraged. Don't give up. Keep moving forward.

Here are some tips for dealing with strange things:

• Accept that things don't always make sense. This is a hard pill to swallow, but it is important to accept that there are some things in life that we will never understand.

• Focus on what you can control. There are many things in life that we cannot control, but there are also many things that we can control. Focus on the things that you can control, and let go of the things that you cannot.

• Learn from your experiences. Even if something doesn't make sense, you can still learn from it. Take some time to reflect on what happened, and see what you can learn from it.

• Keep moving forward. Don't let the things that don't make sense stop you from moving forward. Keep moving towards your goals and dreams, and don't let anything stand in your way.

Remember, not everything happens to us is bad. Sometimes, the things that don't make sense teach us the most. So keep moving forward, and don't let anything stop you from achieving your dreams.

As Norwegian crime writer Jo Nesbo once wrote: “Losing your life is not the worst thing that can happen." The most awful thing is losing your reason for living.”
