Hi genrs:
I try to not label events in my life as good or bad. Life is what it is. There have been many times in my life where I thought that something was bad for me, but it turned out to be good for me. On the flip side, there were times I thought something was good for me and it turned out to be bad.
Secondly, I remind myself to detach from events in my life. Whatever I have in life, I will lose. Wealth, power, fame, beauty, youthfulness, are transitory so why be attached? As a result, I try to not get too excited about the good in life because I know it won't last. I am attached to the eternal one. Everything else is an illusion.
Peace.
