When we're faced with adversity, there are two questions we should always ask ourselves: 1. Will I allow this adversity to make me bitter? OR 2. Will I use this adversity to make me better?

Given the fact that few things are uglier than bitterness, I'm fairly certain we'd all want to answer "no!" to the first question and "yes!" to the second. However, living up to these answers is tougher than actually answering them.

One of the first things you can do when adversity strikes is to remind yourself that you are not an exception - life isn't "picking" on you. Bad things happen to everyone - there's no escaping them. They know where we live!

Whether the adversity is a major loss, such as the death of a loved one or a marriage, or a health issue that you, yourself, now have to wage war against - prayer, talking to people who care, and allowing yourself time to heal are the three best pieces of advice anyone could ever offer you.

Even when adversities are closer to "minor" than "major," they're still bothersome enough to drive you half mad. Again, you have to determine if you'll come through the adversity better or bitter - then you have to summon all the will-power and strength inside of you to take the right road....The Better road.
