The truth is that sometimes people will screw you over.

There will be times in your life when you will make the right decisions, take the right steps, and yet you will be harmed.

You are not responsible for what happened.

 There was no way you could have anticipated the outcome.

 It just happened.

 And you can't change it.

 The only thing you can control is your reaction to the situation, how you recover from what you've been through, and how you move forward.

Do you hate the world and yourself, do you self-destruct and lose all the progress you've made because of the anger you feel, or do you make the best of the situation and decide that you won't let yourself get depressed for long, you'll move on and keep your hopes high?

 The harsh truth is, no matter how perfect you are, how much you plan or overthink, sometimes things just don't go the way you expect them to.

 Instead of freaking out, you should take solace in this.

 After all, it means you shouldn't be too hard on yourself when things get tough, because some things are out of your control.

You are not responsible.

 You are not a failure.

 You don't deserve what happened.

 It just happened.

 In fact, understanding that things can go wrong is motivating.

 You shouldn't spend your whole life in your comfort zone.

 You should take risks and follow your dreams, even if you do everything right.

 By being happy, you can also reach for the stars and you never know where your path will end.
 The truth is that life is not always going to fulfill your plans.

 That's why it's important that you know how to be flexible in difficult times.

You will learn to recover from losses, sadness and failures.

 In addition, it is essential that you discover how to grow and improve from these experiences.
