blessing in disguise

Absolutely!! I couldn't agree more. The main thing that keeps me believing in things like "God" and "fate" is something that happened to me a few years ago. I had been going through a tough time at university. Boyfriend troubles, difficulties with my course etc etc. I felt quite lonely really far away from my parents. As part of my course I could apply for an exchange to a foreign country that I had wanted to do since I started my course. I applied for the exchange but sadly my grades weren't up to scratch so I didn't get the chance to go. I was very disappointed and felt like everything was going wrong. I stuck it out though and started the last year of my course and within a month I had fallen in love with the most amazing man who is now my husband. If I had gone on the exchange I would not have met this man so.....everything happens for a reason!!

Hi No_chao, and what you are saying here is very much the truth :)We have our expectations and wishes, and when we do not get what we want we tend to be disappointed, but we go on with our life. Sometimes we find out how blessed we were to not get what we wanted earlier and actually how blessed we are with what we got without even notocing it at first, so yes, is better I think to get what we need :)
