For anyone who has ever been a kid or teenager, I’m sure that you experienced not getting your way at some point. Unless you’re unique, you still face that. It can be painful, or at least annoying, to not get what you want. It can also be the right thing.

Several movies and songs have mentioned that point, but have you ever thought about it? Here’s an activity to do. Think about all the stuff you got miffed about in your life because it wasn’t what you wanted. You were bound to have gotten upset at someone, perhaps even God. Now, for each of those, think what your life would be like if you got every single thing your way.

That sounds good in the short term, but I know for a fact that bad would come out of our “good” ideas.
