Is it your life?

Oftentimes we are overwhelmed by the events and circumstances that exist in our lives. Is is many times easier to place blame on other people or things that have happened to us than to look inside ourselves for answers. I want to know how people feel when their lives don't seem to be going right, when something bad happens, when a relationship is failing, etc. Do most people feel negative about life, the people involved, and the circumstances? Or do they look to themselves for guidance on how to deal with the situation? I want to know what people think about blaming other people or even life itself when things happen that are difficult to deal with.

I know a few people who easily look unto others if something is not going right in their lives. I guess blaming others is their form of self defense. Unfortunately, I am sometimes the recepient of these blames. It's unfair, and it does greatly affect my views in life. My only consolation is that I can't dwell on it for a long time. Always I've got to move on. Because if I didn't, I'll just fall in a downward spiral. Thankfully, there are other friends who also offer encouraging words that help you deal with these things. Some are even here in myLot. Welcome to myLot!
