Shit Happens - Those awkward moments


 

Shit Happens

By Carl R. ToersBijns

 

A phrase that has been around for the last several decades, it is the most perfect American expression today or any other time in the past to describe life’s imperfections and unexpected surprises. Some people have shit happen to them on a daily basis while others experience it only once in a while being more fortunate than others in this phenomenon.

 

One can relate to the expression whenever something goes wrong. It is realistic that no matter how careful, how well planned or how organized we are as individuals, there is no guarantee that shit won’t happen to you.

 

We always hope for the best and that shit happens to others before it happens to ourselves. However, as you age you become more aware and face the facts more realistically that shit happening is completely out of span of control and not worth worrying about as you always prepare for the worst in life.

 

No amount of preparation will avoid it from happening. It has to be accepted as a part of life. These awkward moments will surely test your skill to handle crisis, accidents or other events. You have to learn to be prepared to openly respond and face the fact that everything in life does not have a happy ending. Picking up the pieces, moving on and dealing with this reality allows you to handle awkward predicaments better and makes you stronger in the long run.
