Topic:
Bad Times
Everyone has bad times in life. No one is immune from adversity. For
some people, the adversity may come late in life and these people are
devastated. For other people, bad times surround them at birth and
adversity follows them for life. It is critical we all understand bad
times fall on a person's life regardless of their race, creed, economic
status, age, or origins. We must never expect the good times to roll on
forever. We must never expect good times to come to us and stay forever.
For if we expect the good times to roll on forever, we will be in shock
when disaster strikes or bad times fall upon us. Our willingness to
admit bad times do happen enables us to prepare our heart, mind, and
soul in advance for what may come. Indeed, the person who prepares in
advance today for the bad times in the future has a decided advantage
when bad times fall. In addition, the person who prepares in advance for
bad times has a greater sense of well-being and security during the good
times because necessary preparations have been made. We must not delude
ourselves into thinking everything will be comfy and cosy in the future.
A construction manager in parts of the world where bad weather strikes
should prepare in advance for bad weather conditions. A person who needs
to fight traffic jams every day should prepare for they adverse traffic
by leaving at an appropriate time. Knowing bad times may fall does not
need to make us unhappy. Knowing and preparing in advance for adversity
can give us a peace, happiness, and security no matter what happens to
us in the future.
