When Things are NOT Going Well as Your Plan


There is a point of darkness time for everyone must face. Someday we all will receive what is coming to us. Everybody else is gonna get theirs too; it’s a fact that everyone must meet their moment of truth.

Yesterday was one of the grey days of my life. Luckily I still have friends to hang with and clear up the day for a while. We watch the Monster and Alien movies. The story is quite similar with our life that we living in and we face it on our daily basis of life.
It’s a story about a woman named, Susan who about to married with a news presenter. On her wedding day, she got crack down by a meteor and transform into a giant monster. Her life wouldn’t be the same again from that day, good bye to her Paris honeymoon, her going-to-be-husband and goodbye to her normal life.

Meanwhile, the audiences: us, unconsciously... we are not only the watcher, yet we are the Actors!

When things are not going as you have planned, when you dreams not come true, when your hope is falling apart, when your prays had not been answered or when you feel the universe seems not cooperate with you, you find your self in the darkness day of your life, feel no one can't understand you, even yourself.

This is for all those who now in sorrow and confusion finding a grip;

- For you who failed in your exam even you have studied hard for a week
- When your lectures reject your thesis many times and stuck with your final project
- When you lost in legislative voting.
- For you who have a family problems.
- For you who got letter from the university that informed you didn’t get the scholarship abroad.
- For you who cancel the entire journey because a bad patch reason.
- For you who are now in financial crisis or in debt a big value of money.
- For you who still unemployed wondering why no one hire you and starting juggling in your head.
- For you who already get your dream job, yet you found that the job, the boss, the colleagues, the company aren’t fit with you, as if you are in the wrong planet working with aliens.
- When your competitor, your colleague plagiaries your ideas that suppose to be yours.
- For you who still searching for the right companion of love but you haven’t meet him/her and right now you feel so damn lonely.
- For you who already found yourself in a relations with someone yet now you’re facing some kind of relationship rage. It could be a different point of view, a different belief, affairs, unsteady, uncompromised or misunderstanding.
- For you who think your marriage is the worst decision you have ever made in you life.
- For couples who hasn’t got a baby yet and starting hopeless to visit doctors.
- For a single woman/man who find your friend that you have ever crushed since a long time already found his/her love without you.
- For the truth that a person you interested in already married.
- For you who find yourself interested with your similar gender. Your family, the society didn’t accept you except labeling as dykes or faggots until you don’t accept yourself either.
- For you who compare successful in someone’s shoes and feel pretty much like a loser.
- For you who now suffering some kind of pain, a dungeon of a broken heart or malignant disease that conked out your mental, physical and spiritual.
- For you who still in grief and try to survive the loss of your lover or your family.
- For you who are now looking backward for some emotional and spiritual help.

Life is difficult for everyone and that it is difficult because we are always grasping and craving something we DON NOT HAVE. The struggles, the heartbreaks, the fear, the hurt, sadness, loneliness, embarrassment all of them is a TRUTH – that life brings with it suffering, that we suffer because we are ALWAYS WANTING SOMETHING MORE. Yet, there’s a path out of suffering.

We are able to transform the tragedies of our lives into our own deep experience of enlightenment. The disaster or bliss will not take forever, nothing last forever. The law of impermanent really works, everything changes as long as we still in the circle of attachment with fleeting things.

Once we accept that we are responsible for our own lives, anything good can happen. We forgot that sometimes no matter what, in the end, you and I are responsible for ourselves, No one else. Not our parents, lovers, friends, partners, husbands/wifes, sisters or brothers. When we admit to this responsibility and embrace it, all sort of barriers to spiritual growth falls away. I know it’s easier to know the theory but very difficult to practice.

Accept it, put a big beautiful smile, open your heart and greet to the un-wanting circumstances as an honor guests.

See things as the way it is, accept things as the way it is.
I bow to the ground in gratitude for all tragedies and miracles in my life.
May all beings be happy.
