You have probably heard some variation to the saying, "Things
always work out for the best." Is it an expression of hope, or
perhaps faith, that regardless of how dark it may look at the
moment, if you keep forging ahead, things will work out for the
best? Or, does the saying discount your participation in making
things better? Does it encourage sitting on the sidelines,
perhaps doing little or nothing, and simply waiting for things
to work out for the best all on their own?
Examining the complete aphorism,
especially the second half - the words usually unspoken - will
provide the answer.
Here it is: Things always
work out for the best ... for people who make the best of how
things work out.
Life has a way of taking unplanned
twists and turn s. Some good... some not so good. So, when
things don't go as intended, it's up to you to make the best of
the situation, and in turn, make things work out for the best.
You must make the best possible decisions using all of the
available information at the time and then take action. Sitting
on the sidelines with a "Why Me?" attitude, wishing and hoping
and doing nothing won't make things better. Life is a one-act
play. If you're waiting for things to get better in Act Two ...
you'll be waiting in vain.
Good things and bad things will naturally happen in life. Both,
some people say, lead you to exactly where you need to be at
that moment in your life. If you appreciate the good and learn
from the bad, and take action, in the end, things will work out
for the best.
