Things Do Not Always Go According to Plan
We make plans in an attempt to control what will happen. We are challenged with the fact that "life" has a mind of its own because man plans and God laughs. The paradox that we live in God's river, with our boat named free will, where we are free to struggle up stream against the flow or we can serenely float down stream with the flow of life....is always a choice. As Self-mastered adults we need to accept the things about life that we cannot change, the "what is" "as is" elements of life. This helps us accept ourselves, people, and life's experiences "as is." Being an emotionally mature adult means that you accept the fact that some of your plans will not work out the way your ego says it should.

Very true. As long as we expect people to react or act to us a certain way, we will always be disappointed. Knowing we can't change anyone else can give us some measure of peace in life. I do choose to flow with love and happiness choosing to be the best I can be, and helping as many as I can.
