There are times that things happen that are beyond my control, and it causes such a feeling of powerlessness, it is overwhelming. Even if some action performed by me causes a certain result that was completely unexpected, I have a hard time letting it go, remembering there are no accidents and that there is a reason for everything. I take it so personally, it's like grabbing a huge weight and setting it right on my chest and stomach. I leave it there to the point it almost crushes the life out of me - I can't breathe. Then, at the very last second my will to live kicks in and I throw off the weight, gasping for air. Could it be that I feel the need to punish myself for making what I thought to be a mistake, an error in judgment? Could it be that these are the times when I need to be the most gentle with myself? Put things in perspective, take a moment to reflect on the big picture and go take a nice, hot bubble bath!
