A month ago my friend Ray, from Dallas called to invite me to go to Mexico with a group of volunteers. We were supposed to drive 16 hours from Dallas to Muzquiz, San Miguel, for a work project, but 2 days before I was to meet Ray in Dallas he called to say, “I can’t do the trip.” I was disappointed but honestly, after hearing about decapitations in Mexico, I got over it pretty quick.
Oftentimes life throws us a curve; plans change, people disappoint us, expectations fall short and we’re left wondering, “what happened?” How do we respond to all of the disappointment we encounter in life?
The second century Roman Emperor, Marcus Aurelius said, “Adapt yourself to the things among which your lot has been cast and love sincerely the fellow creatures with whom destiny has ordained that you shall live.” I think that about says it all.
