This week, once again I saw how quickly things can change. That happened to someone I know. Unfortunately, the change that happened was not one that was desired. Sometimes the most difficult situations can bring about some positive things.

History is full of stories where negative situations challenged the person to do things that they may never have attempted. Some invented things, others started businesses, or wrote books, or a host of other things. There are those who failed many times before hitting on something that was successful. The key was, they didn’t give up.

It is still too early to know what will happen to the one I alluded to. Sometimes one has to have a little time to adjust to a new situation before they can move on. The sad part would be not moving on, but rather letting it defeat them.
