Ive had a week where every time the phone rings it someone ringing to tell me bad/sad news. Its like the "it never rains but it pours" saying. Two of my relations have been taken very ill. Neither is expected to survive and then my mother in law has to have a very risky operation as she has developed a condition that is life threatning. I also got 2 bits of bad news on the work front and another bit of bad news regarding my house and even another regarding my daughter. Does this kind of thing happen to everyone or is it just me. it seems all the years problems have come in one week. This also happens me in reverse sometimes and when one amazingly good bit of news cmes my way I get loads more very close to it. Wierd or what??
As I was typing this ive just had a call from my mum and she told my Auntie Betty has just passed away half an hour ago. R.I.P.

This is an awful lot of bad news in such a short space of time. The work news is surely the least important but possibly the one that will affect you most on a day to day level. The news regarding your daughter hopefully is not too bad. The important thing to remember is that it is not what happens to us in life that determines our destiny but how we handle things. I too find that there are clusters of bad luck as well as good luck. Hope everything works out, especially with your daughter.

It seems for me that everything happens in 3's. Whenever I get bad news about something or someone, it isn't long before another follows, and then another. But I keep in mind that life what we make of it. Try to focus on what makes you happy. Bring in spark of light to brighten your dark days. Time heals.
