Things Against Your Will

In our whole life, we have met so many things which are against our wish and will. But, we have to endure it and can do nothing against. It is because that is the reality of our life.
In many cases, we think what we do should be prefect in result, but on the contrary the end is a mess which we do not expect.
Therefore, when we do anything, we should expect the best, but on the other hand, we have to prepare for worst. By such preparation, our sentiment will be peaceful and our mind will be as still as a pond water. This is good to our health.
When we see people who are successful, we feel a little envy and hope that we can be same as theirs. But, we do not know how hard they struggled before their success.
Many times, we hear a good singer singing beautiful songs, but they practiced day and night for ten years just for a performance in the stage only for a few minutes.
Therefore, we should think that things against our wish is normal and we should accept it peacefully.
