There is a bigger plan for each one of us

At times, it is so relaxing and heartening to just say to yourself - "God has a bigger plan for me".. Try repeating that to yourself a couple of times, remind yourself again and again - the more you accept that as a truth, the easier and simpler things seem to be.. Small worries, tensions, some misgivings and misunderstandings seem to get smaller and smaller... till a point where you actually start seeing beyond a lot of petty, small issues that seem very big in the immediate short term...

Try that - it works. Think long term.

Should try this :-). I have always believed in "Whatever happens, happens for the best"

It is not always very easy to believe what happens is for the best. It is very difficult most of the times, when you are thinking short term, on a day-to-day basis. Most of the daily issues seem very very big and seem the most important.

The key instead is to be able to think long term. See beyond a lot of small daily problems. Look at a bigger picture.. I am trying to :)

When things don't work short term, the long term picture often seems hazy. Sometimes I wonder if there is a long term at all? But humans have a unique way of rationalizing and healing :)
