First Drafted: 29/6/14
I'm on 2%. iPad is on the verge of dying. This charger ain't doing nothing. I try again and again, to no avail. Changing the charger temporarily helped until another issue put my dated ipad to sleep for a couple of years, literally.
Two years down the line, with a new member of the family about to be 5 months. Finally my hubbie came to the rescue it was 2016. He managed to get the screen fixed which had been the last issue in 2015. Unfortunately, with a busy baby at large, the screen once again played up and the only answer was to send it back to the insurers. However due to complication my darling iPad once again sits quietly gathering dust till I perhaps replace it with a more recent model.
One can imagine the frustration I felt when the first jam happened. But the first thing I had to do was calm down. Being upset was definitely not going to help. The very
first thing was to try and get a solution. Then when option one didn't work out, the second option was tried. When that option didn't work and it was just blank and dead. I had to decide to move on.
How many times when certain situations turn into something we do not intend or want. For example being in a job you hate. An end of a friendship or a broken relationship. First step as I did with the iPad is try and see if there is a solution.What are the options? Then implement the solution. Go ahead and see if option 1 or 2 or even 3 would work. After trying and noting that the broken thing, relationship or unhappy work environment is not changing for the better. The best thing to do sometimes is to just calmly but steadfastly decide and choose to walk away.
In my later years, I have learnt to learn from all situations. Above all I have learnt to let go of all baggage and trauma that may be associated with such circumstance.
In short: in all situations keep calm whether things are going you way or not. Try and find a solution. And if need be let go and calmly move on with a clean heart and peace in your soul. Knowing you gave your all, you tried your best. However if its a toxic situation. The best thing to walk away as early as possible.
