If things aren't going the way you want, or going the way you expected, first of all you should know you're not alone. Second, figure out how to "make do" with what you've got. That may sound like "settling for second best," but chances are if you give up your expectations about the way things should be – you’ll discover the gifts from God hiding in what you already have. Pay attention to what you have: Eyes that can see beauty, ears that can hear music and the voices of people you love, and a Creator who loves you dearly just as you are. Whatever your life holds right now, learn to make the best of it. Whatever you do, don't abuse yourself or make it harder.
