There are events and just overall situations in life that people cannot control. The death of a beloved one, when you don't really like your job but you can't leave it for a period of time, maybe you ran out of money and have to pay debts and you are working on it but you wished you had more NOW, so many different situations that take time to solve.

Of course, not that you should settle with it, but that will make you feel lost and sad and angry for a period of time and you just have to go through it cause that's life, we are meant to be in bad situations, is the way to grow. When we are in it, I don't think we can see it that way, it's easier to just dwell on it.

Accept what you can't control but know that you have to work towards it to feel better.

I know there's a saying like that already, i just couldn't find it.
