Life happens to people across the world, but sometimes I feel like crazy unsettling life events can never happen to me. I feel immune to things sometimes. This is a BAD way of thinking, at least for me.
My friend came to visit me from Tampa, and while we were here she found out some pretty heavy information concerning her life. After the initial freak out, we sat down, talked about the necessary steps to make things better, and ordered a Jimmy Johns sub.
After this experience, I realize that when I am in a stressful/unexpected situation, My mind kicks into survival mode and I usually am able to handle things, and have faith that there is a reason for all the madness I go through. Life won't throw anything at me that I have no idea how to handle. If it does, I can probably find someone who is going through the exact same thing; and he or she can help me.
My friend is at home, now, and I am back in Gainesville (I took an impromptu trip to Tampa) and I can't help but to be grateful for my growth in life.
CAITLIN'S DAILY ADVICE: When life hands you lemons, bitch slap them a little bit, and then be grateful that you have the lemons. Maybe after you're done with this, make lemonade.
