A lot of times we wonder why things happened a certain way? Why didn’t we get that job or what if we hadn’t missed that bus? Maybe, life would have been totally different than what it is today. It is a way nature works. It’s saving us from unwanted disasters and the dangers of the world. However, we do not realize this at the moment and get frustrated and disappointed. But later when we hear what other people have gone through because of what seems to us as a missed opportunity, we only become more thankful.
Things like this happen to us on a daily basis. We are saved from a lot of dangers and we are not even aware of them. We are surrounded by incredibly powerful forces that fight against the odds and keep us safe. All we have to do is be as grateful and as thankful as we can be and always think positive. We are what we think, so if we think negatively, we encounter more and more negative in life. If we think positively, we shall encounter all positive things and great success in life.

Sometimes we are so close to the most unfortunate events and we are saved by some unexpected delays or hurdles.
