When life dishes out something different from your original plans that you didn't expect, one needs to seize the opportunity and make lemonade!
Nothing in our life comes to a surprise to God and when things happen contrary to our own timetable, we need to accept this change as well.
We moved to our present home and I still look at the things in our home and wonder how they got from house A to house B. We turned a new page in our life and now it was time to enjoy retirement.
Did we change the way we lived? Not much, we got up early and enjoyed the things we scheduled to do that day. Our lives as far as spending went on as before. We weren't in the habit of outlandish spending, so this didn't change.
We had more time to "smell the roses" along life's way. This is a "good thing"!
We had more time to enjoy our grandchildren and attend much of their activities. Another "good thing"!
We had more time to travel via camping. Another "good thing"!
Wisdom--Just because life changes, it doesn't necessarily mean that the change is a "bad change", just a different era in one's life. Again, just think positive and accept things as they come, and one has the recipe for "happy living".
