Our stories are not fully our own.  There are times when unforeseen circumstances enter the storyline and change the predictable outcomes.  And that is all ok – as long as we are open to new possibilities.  As long as we remain faithful to that instinct aptly named adaptation, then we can find our way to a positive new existence.  If you find yourself challenged by the circumstances of your life, especially if you were victimized by events outside of your control, then consider this a clarion call to stand and make a wonderfully new reality.
