So, this life of ours is full of trials and tribulations. Some of the issues are out of our control while others are squarely on us. Either way the issues often seem completely unnecessary having no lesson in sight. You are not alone but that is not what we are discussing right now. I want to touch on how we handle the issues. I like to call issues dents. Some dents can be repaired and eventually it’s like it never happen. Some dents leave a scar while other dents are left forever. The handling of these dents are vital in making it through this difficult life in the smoothest way possible. I often tell myself and those in my circle (now including you) to try to make life as simple as possible. Life is hard enough. One major way we make life more difficult is making these dents into disasters.
We all do it and it is not hurting anyone more than ourselves. The person who hates their job because it makes them feel unwanted and replaceable while the job itself is a necessity to you. This is a dent that hurts you in the present but can be repaired. You can look for a better place to work or start your own business on the side. Find small joys to get you through until you can leave. You can also make it a disaster. Lashing out at work killing your chances of moving up or quitting immediately after the blow up. You have nothing to fall back on and it’ll take a while to find a new position. The bills won’t stop, and the stress will mount. Don’t make the dent a disaster. The person who gets into a huge argument with their spouse. It’s a small thing but tempers are flaring. It could be nipped in the bud if somebody would hear out the other person, but no one is giving in this time. This is just a dent, but things get to the point where you say and do things with the intent to hurt them and leave the relationship. Welcome to disaster. This will leave a scar on both of you. Mainly because 9.5 times out of 10 you two are not breaking up.

So, you remember all the things they did and said. As do they. Now in the back of your head, you know what that person is capable of when they are upset. Trust is never the same. Freely loving that person has turned into carefully loving that person. Don’t make the dent a disaster. The person who loses a loved one suffers one of those dents that leaves a dent forever. They were part of our lives and we feel they took a chunk with them. That’s the dent. The disaster is no longer living after we lose that person. Yes, we are walking around and breathing but stuck. In this case, life tends to be lived in the past or stagnant state and ironically, we lose the time we have because we are mourning the time our loved one no longer has. It may be hard but don’t allow their death to count as two. You love them and you show it. They love you right back, but they would never want you to stop living the moment they did. Don’t make the dent a disaster.
In closing, the moral of the message is not letting unfortunate situations grow exponentially. We need to be aware of situations we can control and do our part. I write these examples in attempts to include as many people as possible. If one didn’t hit home just use this as a reminder to be aware of times where you are about to make a tough situation into a life altering one. Don’t do it. Don’t make the dent a disaster!
Food for thought…. you do the dishes.
