"The moment we start to love our fate, we start to conquer the world".

The world that we live in is not perfect, the people in it are not perfect. On a daily basis we will face problems and predicaments that we think will ruin our lives. But will those bad situations really ruin our life?

Loss of job, loss of loved ones, accidents.. These are tragedies in lives and some we can avert, but others we have no control over.
But we can always control our reaction to the bad circumstances and the bad events. If the skies begin to fall down, we are not superman to stop it. But we can choose to panic or choose to figure out what's happening and see what can be done. The truth in life is that panicking won't solve any problems ; besides it will create fresh ones.

We as logical beings should always try to improve ourselves. We should try to avert bad circumstances but be prepared to handle difficult circumstances also. We should be able to identify Solvable problems and unsolvable problems. Solvable ones, solve it and move forward. Unsolvable ones, analyses it, do what can be done and move forward. Crying and panicking about problems is the worst way of solving it.
