Powerless!
There are few things in our life where we are powerless, but that is ok because you have the power everywhere else. One of lifes greatest games is throwing stuff at you to see if you can handle it, such as cars breaking down, money getting stolen, getting stuck in a snow bank, or people that just test you. You are powerless for the most part of the events that are thrown at us to test us. To see how strong we are. How brave we are. How determined we are. What kind of person we will become. You are powerless at the events, but you hold all the power of how you handle it. Sure you could go sit in the corner and cry poor little old me, or you can do the right thing get back up, and figure out the best result, and make it HAPPEN!
People are put in our life for us to love, learn from. teach, and test us. We are powerless over other people in most situations, because ultimately what they want to do should come down to them. If not they do not realize their inner power. We have the power to love how we want to, learn all that we can, teach others, and ignore @$$holes! But some would like to feed into the negative and just give in to the others attitude. In a way becoming powerless. Giving them exactly what they want, an altercation, where they hold all the power, because you have lost a portion of yours, and they know it. You can love who you want in this world, but you are powerless to how that person will react. It might be the same way you show love, or it might be completely different. People who we trust never stop trying to teach us, and we also have the ability to always teach others. We have the power to help, but we are powerless of making others listen unless they want to. Ultimately you have all the power within in you for your life.
The trick in life is knowing what you have the power to influence, and what you are completely powerless in controlling. Once you have that figured out you will live a happy life, and most likely a successful one. Life comes down to those three rules: You must know what you cannot change. Have the courage to change the things you can. And finally the wisdom to know the difference. It's pretty straight forward, and applies everywhere in life. The people who fight those three rules are extremely unhappy, and usually unpleasant to be around. They either think one of two things crap always happens to me, O woe is me, or they think they have the power to control the world and hate themselves when they realize they only have real power within their own world. Simple accept those three rules and live a happy life.
