You know how it feels whenever something bad happens? So many questions will start running through our minds. Who, what, when, where, why, how. Yet we always look at it from a pessimistic view. Why can't it be a good thing that had happened? Yeah it may seem really bad, but looking at it again is it really THAT bad? Now you probably think that I am mad, how can something bad be something good? Look at it this way, what if something bad has to happen before something good can happen? Do we look at the closed door for too long that we don't realise that another has opened? Has that ever happened to you?

Something really bad happened to me somewhere in the middle of this year and i seriously thought that the world had ended, at least for me. Yet God isn't so cruel as to take something dear away from us without replacing it with something better. We may not see it as we tend to look too long at that door that has been shut. Though HE took something i treasured and loved alot away from me, HE did give me something else in return. I cant say its better than before yet, there are so many things that he has given me in return that i have difficulties weighing which is better to have. Its only human nature to hold on to what has been lost and not realise the other good things right in front of our eyes. We always ask for things we want but not things we need and when we get the things we need but not the things we want we end up complaining. HE took a friend away yet HE surprised me with yet another friend. HE gave me what I lacked and NOW I have my self-confidence, my self-respect. I no longer look down on myself, I don't feel inferior to others and I learnt that no matter what happens I do have people who loves me, who would sacrifice their lives for me. Aren't these better things to have? What more can I ask for? It is true that whenever one door closes another will open. Only thing is, are we ready to look for that door? Do we want to see it? Or are we still entrapped by that closed door? The decision lies with you, to look at the closed door or look for the newly opened one...I know what my decision will be. What will yours be?
